Hollybush Railway
Hollybush Railway is a TT:120 scale model railway set in a small industrial town in south west Scotland, created by David Burns.
It's not a recreation of the real life Hollybush station on the Ayr to Dalmellington line, but does take its name from there as every time I went up to visit my Grandparents who lived there, I always hoped I'd see trains running over the line that ran near the road up. There are parts of the layout inspired by that rural line through the Ayrshire countryside, parts taken from Ayr itself where I grew up and parts from Glasgow where I live now.
The layout doesn't rigidly stick to one exact time period, although it's mostly somewhere around the 80s and 90s. Primarily though, I follow Model Rail Rule #1. It's your layout, run whatever you like. Therefore you'll see a whole lot of rolling stock that might never realistically have ran in the area or the time, just because I like how they look.
