Description based on material supplied by the layout owner
Polpendra Polpendra is a small terminus station and the end of a Y on a branch line somewhere West of Dartmoor, Devon. One direction runs to the mainline and the other on to a small china clay works hence the occasional visit of clay trains which run in, run around and run out again. The station also has operating rights for the occasional Southern region service as well so the variation to be seen is far in excess of any station in real life of Polpendra's size. The idea behind the layout was to develop a taste of a West country branch line as far as possible, an aim I hope people think I have achieved. |
