FACTFILE
NAME: Brunswick Yard
SCALE/GAUGE: 4mm:1ft/16.5mm/OO
SIZE: 12ft × 1ft
ERA/REGION: 2010 to date, somewhere in the UK Midlands
LAYOUT TYPE: End to end
The idea for ‘Brunswick Yard’ was developed in our old group meeting rooms above The Brunswick pub in Derby, hence the name.
The layout design and location is fictitious and the concept is a main line (off scene) feeding a wagon repair works (off scene opposite end), with stabling sidings for wagons/coaches awaiting repair or post-repair. It also has a light maintenance shed for stabling and maintaining locomotives.
‘Brunswick Yard’ could be described as “the layout that was built twice”
