Wagon Repair Sidings
Marshleigh Wagon Repair Depot is set in present day Wiltshire, specifically from around 2010 onwards. It is based in a fairly rural location but is supposedly near to a larger, busier marshalling yard. The principle of operation is based on the many wagon repair depots around the UK where wagons are taken on short "trip workings" to be repaired. These services are occasionally seen arriving at Marshleigh hauled by a mainline locomotive. The wagons are then shunted around the yard ready to be repaired. The majority of the rolling stock comprises of ex British Rail civil engineering wagons - these are frequently seen in the real area at places such as Westbury and Eastleigh.
The layout was started in November 2021 as a small scene to run my collection of modern image rolling stock. Being 5 feet long it is easily transported as one piece.
The wagons themselves are a mixture of ready to run, kit built and scratch built to represent a wide variety of modern image engineering stock. They have all been suitably weathered using acrylics, washes and airbrushing based on real images.
The scenery is built using products from Woodland Scenics, Green Scene, Javis, including turf, scatter, static grass and polyfibre. I have used Dapol's Pothole Road kit to create the tarmac areas.
The buildings are all kit built or scratch built using plastic sheets and styrene section.
The track is Peco code 100 concrete and runs on DCC. Some locomotives are sound fitted. They are all in various stages of completion in terms of their weathering and DCC fitting.
