East Dock 
Abingdon & District MRC OO gauge 4mm scale
East Dock is a 4mm scale, EM gauge layout built by long time Abingdon Model Railway Club (ADMRC) member Alan Goode. Alan was acknowledged by the members of the ADMRC as one of their most skilled modelers. The whole model from the baseboards to the delightful little locomotives and rolling stock were designed and built with the thoughtful precision that Alan exuded in everything he did and it is a privilege to be able to exhibit East Dock in his memory.
The layout is set in the period circa 1936 and represents one corner of a much larger dock complex somewhere in the Goole/Selby area of Yorkshire. Both the London Midland and Scottish (LMS) and the London North Eastern Railway (LNER) operated there, using tracks or running powers inherited from their pre-grouping predecessors.
The locomotives are mostly kit built, with their chassis modified to in corporate compensation to improve both running and electrical pick-up. The other rolling stock is mostly kit built and is biased towards the specialist dock traffic.
Most of the buildings are of plasticard embossed stone or brick on a balsawood or foamboard core. They include the original stone buildings and perimeter wall constructed by the dock company, and the scene is set by scratch-built "dirty British coaster" in the dock.
