Description: This is footage taken of our Modern Image ‘N’ Gauge Model Railway ‘Littlewood’ at a Model Railway Exhibition near Wolverhampton. The layout was exhibited all around the UK between 1996 and 2007, attending over 50 shows. The track plan comprises a double track mainline which passes through three levels; on the middle level it is joined by two slow lines, making a quadruple section. The lower level mainline is equipped with overhead catenary for electric services. A disused branch line from the upper level has been taken over by a preservation society, who are in the process of restoring it for steam and diesel operation. The station has been renovated for use as a base for passenger services and locomotive restoration and a limited shuttle service is operating over part of the line. The movement of trains is fully automated using magnets, reed switches and relays. The layout was sold in 2007 and a full description is available at welcome.to

    Amazing layout, but could really use some trees, people, roads, buildings, etc.
    More scenery.

    As a base layout it’s great, though. Five stars.

    I’m making a line of 3d-printed sandstone building models on Shapeways for T-gauge.
    Between those, paper-folded models, fine-detail foliage from Woodland Scenics and other companies, Herpa vehicles, and the models produced by Eishindo, it should be possible to make some really nice scenic forest or city designs in T-gauge.

    Sir, have you completed this coffee table? Do you have an update video or photos that can be emailed? Cool layout. My wife is interested in letting me build a coffee table layout because of your video. Thanks.
