  1. Thank you Leslie .ive been collecting  00 trains for many years . And this layout is only my second attempt at a railway .My last attempet  had mountains but not at this scale . N scale would be best to fit all aspects in . 

    Brunel’s tunnel with bridges  ,, wooden trestles would be nice,i was thinking to make the bridges to put in place as they would have stood. 

    The track way and walk way has many tunnels ,bridges , arches , and patch up walls up rights  ...concrete  patch ups over the years . .

    Can  I ask for some help in finding out what a structure of blocks on the south bank . Find picture ..

    on the wall below there is a opening. I think it was a make shift crane myself I could be wrong . 

    If you look closely it is on the what was the track bed . 

    Any help in this will be very greatful . 

    With thanks to YouTube for photo ..

  2. Thanks guys . 

    Track is down and running on dc to test at the moment .  Track in bray station still a bit rough as I am using new and used points .

    and fitting it all in the space I have is turning out to be a challenge in its self . N scale would be the way to go ,as to fit every tunnel  in as so forth . 

    Looking for the history on the net ,photos and such I find a lot of the same taken in the same spotes over the years that the beauty spot that it is lol .. 

    with help from Noel’s video clip helped in more ways than one total deferent angle and view ...... Thanks Noel 👍

     

  3. Thanks guys . And Noel great help ,,and video will be grand ,right spot too. 

    Its true build it and it will come . (Train that is )

    funny part about building a mountain  like this is the more I build on to it ,the more the photos change .like every part 

    you look at looks different from different angles.

    Always  been drawn to this mountain in some way . ( close in counters film ) I can’t quit put my finger on it ...but now I can . Lol

    ps .if i can’t get track laid in side mountain ,,I won’t be able to retrieve derailments. 

    Thank everyone keep you posted. Tin Tin

  5. Thank you Murray it’s something I always wanted to do . With space also ,, and yes 

    bray station is a tight squeeze and to add a turn table I never knew they had . 

    N scale would be great .ideal . 

    As im finding out with OO points ad length to the model very easy. And there is not a lot of photos or track plans . Lol

    i have done what seems a lot of research,looking at lots of internet. 

    And came across the ordence survey maps . After I done research lol

    im going for dcc this time .lets see how I get on.
