One station of the Devan & Summersett
While the main part of my layout has been described under Devan and Summersett and this will be added to as I update existing parts of it, I thought that I would start a new thread on the small terminal I am calling Barnstable.The location is partly on the lift-up onto the room and the adjoining part of the main board about 1.5 inches higher than the main tracks.
The plan below shows what I hope to do with two points, low relief buildings for station and goods shed. Traffic will include a GWR railcar as the passenger service with the Terrier with 2-3 wagons every so often.
The photos that follow show the site as it is now and as I add track, etc, further photos, etc will be added. I expect that this will take a while as I will be doing other parts to the main layout as well.

I really like the way you add more to your layout, and to put a station at the back like that is very clever, instead of just covering it with hills
If you want some photographs of the real thing……….. just ask :thumbs

A nice blue Class 25 with some clay wagons would look the business as well!Traffic will include a GWR railcar as the passenger service with the Terrier with 2-3 wagons every so often

John, right now. the "or what" but later on, I think it will be an embankment - it will have to fit in with the scenery that will be created for the curved part of the trackage. I will get a photo of that part later on today.
Brian, 009 - no room!

The real Barnstaple was big - not sure what it is like now but mine is very small.

It's very small now, just one line from Exeter, that is only used for passager stock, very run down, even though they have just given it a lick of paint, and call it the Tarka line !!
