Piccadilly Model Railways
HI EVERYONE,
Piccadilly Model Railways currently covers two layouts: An N gauge layout based around modern day Manchester Piccadilly.
This layout was started in October 2018 and represents Piccadilly station and an image of the WCML. The layout is broken in sections DCC depicted miles apart from each other separated by varying modelling features eg bridges, backscenes etc. It will included other smaller branch line stations so trains can go on a journey.
The other layout OO gauge Piccadilly Sidings is a fictional location near Manchester which is mainly a heritage lin but modern stock still passes through. This layout currently is an end to end but is
Kind regards,shortly going to be converted into a tail chaser with a hi long traverser as a fiddle yard. I am keen to see this complete as the layout is vastly under used. It’ll will be nice to see trains running continuously. Scenic areas of the layout need some work but will largely remain unchanged in the conversion.
Regards,
John
