UPDATE
24th June 2024
Work on Connell Ferry is gradually progressing with final plastering of the embankments bordering the station and insertion of a central section of baseboard where the main station building will be located. We will soon be planning and building the platforms and approach curves at each end of the front board leading around to the fiddle yard. We will also start construction of the layout control panels. Keep watching as we progress…
Connel Ferry - N Gauge
An N gauge model of Connel Ferry station was started in 2022. This is the first attempt by the club to built a representation of a real location (as far as we know). It is set in the mid 1950s to mid 1960s British Railways era, when the Ballachulish branch was in its final years of operation. We plan to have an image of the Connel Bridge on the backscene. Operation of the layout is likely to be mostly DC but DCC operation may be used occasionally. As for operating signals, we will see?
The move to larger premises will make work on the layout much easier to accomplish.
