Ng layout from the 80s
Can anyone help me with this. I remember seeing, sometime during the 80s an 0-16.5 welsh narrow gauge layout in Railway Modeller. Can't remember it's name or when it appeared but it was a great model. The best I can do to help is, it was a "terminus" but with the possibility of thru running eventually, at the left hand side, where there was a low relief house back. Then there was a station building and platform. The track then left the scenic area behind the engine shed and looped round to return in front of the sheds or maybe even thru a shed. The locos were based on Talylyn engines.Sorry but that's all I can remember. If anyone could identify the layout from my vague description and point me in the right direction to find the said article it would be much appreciated.

I think the layout you are referring to is Gordon Gravett's Llandyref. I haven't got the particular issue of RM to hand, but (faulty) memory tells me it was sometime around 82/83 ish? You'll also find details of the layout in the Modeller book of narrow gauge, published by Peco around 84/85. And notable because that was the first tiem Ted Polet's inestimable work in 009 had been featured.
hope this helps,
Best wishes,
David.
