One such layout was built by a friend who sadly died a couple of years ago.

Once you've taken a layout to an exhibition you'll be hooked! It can be maddening when things are going wrong but when they are going right it can be extremely enjoyable. Effectively, one or two days playing trains all day 😀 A sequence of some sort is a very good idea. You mention it being a two man lift to move each board, well you will want a second man with you anyway. One to operate whilst the other looks round the show, has lunch or makes a trip to the little boys room. Swap over regularly and you will both enjoy yourselves a lot. 😉

This beautiful layout is a classic example of what happens with all of us old guys and our dearly built and constructed layouts. My pike is exactly this size, and I've made provision for its future use after I've moved on - which is not really so different from what has happened to your friend's layout. I made the conscious decision several years back to go this size so I could enjoy my hobby, and still not burden my family with "what do we do with all this now that he's gone?" Sure, I wanted to build that dream layout; but it just didn't make sense for me. Anyway, it's great that you are helping out with preserving the wonderful work Dave obviously put his heart into. And, it will be presented so that a new generation of railway modelers can be inspired to share this wonderful hobby. Keep the layout, Charlie. I would.

Charlie, it is so nice to see that you felt strongly enough about this layout to take over the restoration of it. It truly is a little work of art. I too had acquired a layout by someone I knew who has passed. His name was Dave Methlie and he had built a number of layouts here in the States to promote his business at train shows, some of which were featured in Model Railroader Magazine. I was lucky enough to acquire Dave's Deer Mountain layout with the idea of restoring it. It was in much the same shape as this one. Sadly I just didn't have the time to devote to it that I felt it deserved. I hope that you have the time needed that this lovely little layout deserves.

One thing that I consider genius, is the entrance at the rear, behind the buildings, to hide the fiddle yard, and the emphasis on the freight works. Also nice, the kickback to the passenger's halt, you can have some action with a GWR Pannier and an autocoach (for the time period). Other solution à la Minories, two engines, one incoming with the coaches, a second one waiting at the station to take them on the return trip. An interesting situation, because you can imagine the railway company will maximalize the use of the engines : one coming with freight cars, shunting and waiting for the passenger train she will take back, while the second can do some more shunting, waiting for the next passenger train to come, or taking away some freight wagons. You have dozen of possibilities on all the big four with mixed traffic tank engines : A V1 or V3 for the LNER, a E4 or a Terrier for the SR, or an Ivatt 2MT tank for the LMS. A standard 2MT or 3MT for the BR would be at home too. That's my pick here for the steam nuts like me !

Hello Charlie, couple of Kadee tips, mark the centre of the magnets with a figure, or a white mark on the backside of the rail ( non-viewing side), there are also under track magnets. install at build time, and electro-magnets, both are hidden from view, and need the markers as above. Hide the backscene joint with a tall chimney, many options out there... and i'd also be tempted to add a four foot board in the middle, and extend that head shunt into a tunnel and onto a three foot fiddle yard.

Thanks for the tips Richard. I’m unlikely to extend the layout at present, but we shall see how it performs in our Christmas show. Regards, Charlie

Very nive layout and great video. You could open up the back of the fiddle yard so that you could replace engines and rolling stock, as per your timetable. A hinged door would maintain Dave's great work.

Very nice little layout. The only think I myself would have done differently, is have the Small Station Halt moved to just across from the SEVEN STARS HOTEL, (as where it is now on the switch back makes no sense).

This reminds me of the box street yard vibe. I love indsutrial areas. I love the three layers(wall painting and two additional layers coming out. I often wonder if artists like this "see" the completed project before they start it.

I have now heard of a preserved model railway! This layout successfully carries off the kind of dingy scene that is to be found along many railway lines. The rear view of the houses like this is commonly seen. I think you could easily extend the layout with an oval going around the back, which might be easier for you to operate. Thanks for uploading.

I realize a posh gentleman such as yourself spends little time around actual freight yards. Nobody invests any money there, so they tend to be time capsules of broken down antiquity. You can run nearly anything from the last 100 years and it will seem just right on the layout. I enjoyed this video Charlie. Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful layout, it certainly shows the passion of the builder. I love the housing, shops and back scene. The painted back scene fits beautifully with the overall look much better than a ‘photo one would. The track layout has little play value for me because I am a “goes round and round” sort of guy but incorporating a layout like this one into my system would be fantastic!
