Much Ditheryn

The Sussex Downs 009 Group has been working on its layout, Much Ditheryn. It has been shown a couple of times while under construction, including at the group's members' day exhibition last year. There's still much to do, but scenery is continuing to develop. I recently took some photos, some of which have appeared with a short introduction to the layout and the group in the March 009 News.


The layout is set in the Welsh-Shropshire boarders, and hopefully the architecture of the village fits that. 


A river runs through the layout in a ravine.


The track runs on different levels.




Round the back, there is a double-deck train turntable fiddle yard, and a mimic diagram control panel.


Much Ditheryn will be at the Wealden Railway Group exhibition at Steyning on Sunday 8th March. More details of the show here.  Do say hello!
