gm171 kk Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I just came across this. I don't know how many of you have seen this before but it's a great looking layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BosKonay Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Lovely! I always cry a little inside when I hear the phrase 'layout was scrapped' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayner Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 The Wexford boys have been really good in capturing the character of the South East with several excellent layouts since the early 1980s. Johnnie Walker was one of the first to model a railway in a distinctively Irish landscape complete with scratchbuilt buildings and Waterford area steam locos and rolling stock mainly in plasticard on Airfix (GMR) & Hornby chassis.

WRENNEIRE Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Last I heard was this layout was sold to a gent in Cork but do not have any further detailsDavid Wexford MRC I was offered this layout when it was in the clubroom in an old church. By the time the club moved to the new clubroom it seemed to have disappeared, terrible shame as it was one of the best Irish outline layouts at the time.

Weshty Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 That is a class layout. What with the music at the start, I almost expected Michael Portillo to pop out all miniaturised a la Bernard Cribbins. Very impressed by the embankment up the back of the station with posts and fencing and long grass (0:36). Great attention to detail, and even the road and surrounding houses look "right".

Niles Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 This was one of the first layouts I ever saw, used to be fascinated by it as a kid when it was shown at the Gorey Summer Fair during the late 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
