Church Warsop

Tony Gee, Doncaster

Scale: 4 mm
Gauge 18.2 mm/EM

This layout is based on the Lancashire Derby and East Coast Railway, which had its hub at Langwith Junction. It has been assumed that a small passenger station was built on a short branch from Langwith to Church Warsop. The main purpose is to serve Warsop Main Colliery (represented on the backdrop).

The layout is set in the mid 1920s, when the change of ownership from the GCR to the LNER has taken place.

Nearly everything on view has been made, either from raw materials (scratchbuilding) or from kits. EM gauge uses the same size as commercial models as a basis, but the track is wider, to bring it nearer to scale.
