Hi All,

 

Thought I would share the progress of my 00 gauge layout 'Burntwood Heath'. It's 6ft x 2ft and represents a small stabling point with basic depot facilities, including a fuel point, wash plant and a Carraige and Wagon siding. It is set in a city/ industrial setting, with a motorway overbridge forming the backdrop/ scenic break. Trackwork is Peco code 100 and points are powered by Cobalt motors.

 

An overall view of the layout. The siding at the back is just a siding, with the fiddleyard disappering to the right. The fuel point is whare the inspection pit is, with a short siding for a rail tanker to be offloaded. The grey area will be hard standing/ compact ballast, with two loco holding sidings infront. Moving to the right hand side, at the back is the C&W siding, a short stubby siding for half a coach, and two sidings at the front to display stock. Finally in the middle (where the lack of sleepers are) is the wash plant area.
