This is 5 boards of the layout fitted together, it is 20ft in length and these make up the major scenic boards. There is one other board to at the far end which is the bridge board and has to be specially made and 4 fiddle yard boards, 2 at each end
The layout is a 38 x 3 ft exhibition layout in O gauge. It is based in a typical South Wales Valley around 1990. The main traffic is for passengers traveling up and down the valley but there are still a few coal and railfreight trains a day serving the local colliery and more modern industry at the top of the valley. The Layout is being built in the back of a model railway shop called Rickocraft (see link at bottom of the page). Any questions please e-mail us at Johndc120@hotmail.com
