Our exhibitors - 2mm scale layouts
L1: Newvaddon Parkway - 2mm Scale - Darren Glasson
Newvaddon translates from English to Cornish as Nowydh. Set between 1995 to the present day, Newvaddon Parkway is a fictional layout based on the Cornish Main line, with branch lines at each end. The layout draws inspiration from Newport Station(Wales) and Totnes Station(Devon).
Set two miles to the south of Tolvaddon, a fast growing town at the heart of the Cornish countryside. Nearby Penance is a busy shipping port with various flows of coal, oil and container traffic.

L8: Bristol Road - 2mm Scale - Dave Smith
Previously known as Thealby, Bristol Road is based on a pair of bi-directional lines with passenger and freight services. During the 60's the original station was closed, with the line singled. A boom in local industry and house building in the 2000's saw the station reopened and a DMU servicing point built nearby.
Bristol Road is DC controlled and due to feature in Railway Modeller Magazine shortly.

L10: Depôt des Camion - 2mm Scale - Stuart Conlon
Following my main railway interests the layout is fictional, but based loosely on the French/Swiss border. The date is 2017. The scenario is of lines running towards a station throat (but not including it) with a nearby depot for lorries to be driven on to wagons to be taken south through the Alpine tunnels.
The layout has a two track main line plus a single freight line. The freight line has a passing loop and an engine siding.
