Thorberton

Description based on material supplied by the layout owner

Thorberton  
Gerald Teague N gauge 2mm scale

Thorberton is based on the station and track plan at Thorverton on the old Exe Valley line as it was in 1930 to 1950. The locomotives are Farish and Dapol, the rolling stock Farish, Dapol, Peco and scratch-built. The buildings are all scratch-built. The track is all Peco code 55. Points are worked by the wire-in-tube method, decoupling is done by electro magnets under the track. The two ends of the layout are a bit of Modellers' licence. All the trains you see may not have been seen on the Exe Valley line, sorry but it is my layout!
