Dyserth

Description based on material supplied by the layout owner

Dyserth  
Mike Briggs & Nick Barnett OO gauge 4mm scale

The Dyserth branch from Prestatyn remained open until 1973 serving the locality with agricultural products, household coal and stone. No run round facilities were ever provided - the train was pushed the three miles from Prestatyn with the guard acting as lookout. Motive power in the 1970s was predominantly class 24 and class 25 diesels. A 15 mph limit was imposed on the branch.

All the salient points of Dyserth have been incorporated into the model, but have been amended to fit the size of the baseboard. All stock used on the layout is fully detailed and weathered.
