Modern Image O Gauge Exhibition Layout

About the Layout
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).

Layout construction
The layout is constructed used a plywood sandwich technique, this can be seen on a tips and techniques page that I made for the local club (http://mrc.murky.net/tech3.shtml). We are following this but with modifications to suite our layout.
