Lostwood Bridge


Things are now on the move for the creation of the next layout at the club. This will be operated by DCC and be named Lostwood Bridge.
The track plan is loosely based on a real location near Burnley Lancashire.
Eventually it will be a complete round and round layout measuring 20ft x 10ft.
The track plan for the front scenic section is shown below.

A closer look at the ramp leading up to where the container terminal will be sited and also the complimentary ramp down on the main lines so as to avoid having too steep an incline.
Looking at the middle section of the layout showing the signal box and the footbridge that leads to the "Preserved Line" section of the layout.
The platform for that line is just visible behind the box.
