Creating Classic Layouts: Prototype's Portrayed (PECO VHS/1992)
First time on UA-cam, in this second program of the original "shows you how" #modelrailway series, it brings together two classic layouts that represent extremes of scale, but share a common theme of innovation and creativity, it is an inspiration to all modelers and a unique opportunity to compare the contrasting constructional techniques that have been employed.
Henry Holdsworth's () 16mm scale indoor layout was probably the finest model of the 2-foot Lynton and Barnstable Railway ever to be produced. The large hand-built locomotives and rolling stock exude a sense of weight and substance as they trundle through a setting that vividly recreates a prototype that existed between 1898 and 1935.
Equally audacious in concept, the Manchester Model Railway Society's "Chee Tor" exploits the potential of N in a way never previously attempted. It represents a stretch of main line in the Peak District. AS in the prototype, locomotives and rolling stock are dwarfed as they pass through a spectacular landscape of gorges, valleys and hills.
