The Westfield Light Railway

I've just uploaded a page of pictures (with a video) of the above line, which is to be the venue for East Midlands Group meetings over the winter.

Enjoy!

Like that. Hmm, wonder if there's anywhere the Cornwall mob could set up for some indoor meets?

No - it's permanently erected at the owner's factory, so he can play trains in his lunch hour (if he wants to)............

looks a nice layout. Quite large as well, some of these portable lines can get a bit tail chasey! I like the big triangle leading to the steam up bays but must make access to the out side rail at that point a bit trouble some from inside!
