Westwood Bunker

Description based on material supplied by the layout owner

Westwood Bunker  
Robert Barnard OO gauge 4mm scale

Built in 1903 to supply the expanding army camp, the site played a significant role in both World Wars before being dismantled by the Ministry of Defence in 1991. It was not until the early 2000's before a Society planned to restore the site to its former glory. The Society wanted to demonstrate how the military railways in the United Kingdom were run.

The layout is DC operated with a good mixture of locomotives running. The layout features two stations and a yard area, with a mainline connection between exchange siding and the Brookfield (aka the fiddle yard).

If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I hope you enjoy.
