SettleCarlisle68

A very warm welcome to my channel ‘SettleCarlisle68', my upcoming videos will now focus on my new project build a 00 gauge layout. The layout is named 'Ravenstonedale' and is based upon a fictitious station located around the Ais Gill area on the Settle and Carlisle Railway. The layout along with the locomotives and rolling stock will be primarily based on the BR steam era of the 1950/60's. However, I will also run a selection of Settle & Carlisle present day steam excursion trains. The layout is a simple double track loop design that runs around the perimeter of the 2.7 metre square room. The layout includes a station based upon Dent station but with the inclusion of a goods shed, cattle dock and a coal merchant. Further scenic features on the layout will include the Ais Gill viaduct and a section of Ais Gill summit including the signal box and sidings. Videos will cover the planning, construction and the modelling of the scenery on the layout and eventually train running sessions!
