Hinksey Yard (N)

The Club's N gauge layout is based on Hinksey Yard, near Oxford. This is a "Virtual Quarry" providing a store of ballast readily available for distribution and use in engineering works when needed. We are looking at creating a model of the contemporary (2010) railway scene, using the best of the current ranges. We wanted to include the following features:

• • Space to run a variety of trains including long freight trains and HSTs.

  • Double track main line with lay-by sidings.

  • Engineer's or Permanent Way yard.

  • Suitable for exhibitions.

  • Easy to store, set up and disassemble.

We recorded how we built this 20' x 2'9" layout - follow our progress on RMWeb
