Larkrise 2 - 3mm Scale 14.2mm gauge

7'00" x 2'00"

 This layout is a new version of "Larkrise" using parts of my previous GWR layout "Cadeleigh". The trackplan is the same as before but using longer finescale points. To make the layout as short as possible the village on the end has gone, and the fiddleyard and  the sidings can hold only a tank loco and four wagons plus brakevan. This can make for interesting shunting at times, but generally I just shunt as a block train - in reality, they would probably have organised trains according to the yards along a branch whenever possible.
