Brookhall Mill - Possible Sale

BROOKHALL MILL - POSSIBLE SALE

Hi all - I have had a number of kind folk reach out to me about the possibility of making my Irish micro layout ‘Brookhall Mill’ available for sale.  It wasn’t something I had originally considered, but on reflection, it would be better if it was kept operational.  If I had all the space in the world, I would do that myself, but I don’t and I’m moving on to other projects.  So I thought I would float the idea to the members of the two forums of which I am a member to gauge (boom boom) if there was any firm interest, and then make a decision regarding putting it up for sale.

The details are as follows:

    •    OO gauge, with a scenic section of 48in x 18in, and a short single track ‘fiddle yard’ extension.  All Peco track.
    •    End-to-end terminus, not continuous run, with only very short train movements possible
    •    DC, but easily convertible to DCC
    •    GNR(I)-themed with a wide range of fully detailed and authentically-styled GNR(I) buildings, all with interior detail and illumination
    •    Co. Antrim-based but easily adapted to represent other areas on the GN network and suitable for running stock into the modern era
    •    Overhead lighting provided via rechargeable strips
    •    Easily assembled and dismantled for exhibitions

I was thinking of two pricing options:

    •    £475.00 - to include a Gaugemaster twin-track controller (worth around £150.00)
    •    £400.00 - without the controller

Note that no rolling stock would be included in a sale.

If there was sufficient interest, I would envisage the layout being available at the end of August.

All enquiries via direct message - thanks!

Great decision Patrick. Be a shame for it to simply stay in storage.

Hopefully Brookhall goes to a good home and gets a new lease of life.

I wonder if a potential buyer could replace the fiddle yard with a loop and sidings, space permitting, of course, allowing them a little more operational scope.
