Introducing Brickville Town Harbour

- a Lego trains model railway layout which I am continuing to develop.

I built a small layout for the Milton Keynes Model Railway Society annual show Febuary 2011 as someone else had to pull out at short notice.

This has spurred me on to build a larger more detailed layout It is appearing at the MKMRS 2012 show at Bletchley which has focused my attention on getting it finished to a presentable standard (details here).My plans are to continue developing the layout and adding more MOC's, lights, motorised points, and working container crane as time (and money!) permits

As an introduction to brickville, the layout features a beach and harbour along the front with the main part of the layout raised up behind. Buildings along the front include a Lego Creator 5770 lighthouse and a Lifeboat station. This was mostly built from parts from a 7208 Firestation set I got half price from Argos. The lighthouse will be raised up from its current position as I feel its too low at the nmoment but otherwise I think its coming on quite well

I am building the layout in sections, most being on standard 32 stud square baseplates which simply clip together with Technic pins


Lots more photos to come!
