Horselunges

Alan Woodford, Lincoln

Scale: 4 mm Gauge 18.2 mm/EM

Not far from the bottom edge of the Sussex Weald lies the Dicker Tramway, a small independent light railway connecting the brickfields of Dicker with the market town of Owlsham. An intermediate station serving the village of Horselunges forms the subject of the scene depicted here. Times are hard for the Dicker Tramway, as evidenced by the overgrown track and the hand-me-down stock. However, the flour mill, with its own private sidings, provides and important source of traffic for the line and is often the centre of much activity.

All the buildings on the layout come from prototypes within one mile of the East Sussex village of Hellingly, as does the layout's curious name, being that of a nearby manor house. Locos are based on small industrial prototypes, most having scratch built plastic bodies on Tenshodo power units.
