Traditional Farm producing Vegetables and the renowned Gneiss Honey Cider. Farmer is NG Enthusiast who has linked farm to local Branch Line Station via a 15" Railway in the Heywood Style.
Access to farm is otherwise down a maze of narrow farm tracks that are often impassible in Winter.
This Gn15 Layout occupies a space of only 1.0x0.4m although a small fiddle area will be added at LH end to enhance operation. Front of Fiddle area will feature a Stable Yard area with garage.
The Layout was built by Richard Andrews, however he wished to construct a Gnew layout so I bought it.
The paved area in front of door in wall was previously grassed.
Layout has now been extended by adding a Fiddle area to LH end which will enable me to operate Layout more easily at home as well as at Exhibitions.
Fiddle areas will be concealed by a Stable block incorporating Garage detailed within.
Plans are now in hand to add section to left of Fiddle Yard which will incorporate a Coopers and a Pub (buildings by Richard Andrews). This half of layout will have a pizza enabling continuous running. Connection via fiddle yard will give 2+m end to end running. First showing of the additional section planned for Basildon Show - 2009.

Layout is available for exhibition and can be booked by going to: http://www.basildon-mrc.org.uk/ note that it is my own Layout so when quota of 3 Shows p.a. is reached it will not be available until following year.
Will appear at Shepton Small & Delightful 2009.
