How to build a classic gwr halt in ‘o’ gauge

After a chance encounter with a laser-cut depot kit, Paul Gosden set about building a fictional contemporary engineering facility, where green technology is embraced.

With a large room to fill, Cliff Thomas created a wonderful tribute to the preserved narrow gauge railways of Wales, as well as the dramatic scenery in which they operate.

Seasoned ‘O’ gauge modeller Alan Thompson fancied a break from larger layouts, and set himself a challenge of creating a highly detailed 7mm scale scene in less than 5ft.

A chance buy inspired Chris Nevard to create a little-modelled cameo that you can re-create with some simple weathering and scratchbuilding.
