Ridley Station. 

 In the spring of 2007 I realised that Hornby OO gauge live steam will probably never be as cheap again so I bought the Mallard set with a view to building a layout.

It started off as a single loop and station with a bay platform - it's grown a bit since then...

 

Now you see it...

 


Now you don't!

Not having much spave available, I needed to work out some way to have a layout.  My solution was to build it to fit around a window and hinge it so that it will fold down when needed.  


The layout has developed...

And a new engine  A3 Papyrus....

You can see my layout, with fake (and live !) steam in action on YouTube..
