The layout takes it’s inspiration from the Longmoor military railway but can only give and impression of such a large and wonderful piece of history. Even in “N” gauge seventy miles of siding squashed into 8 miles would require some 277 by 86 feet (84 by 26 meters).
The left hand end of the layout represents Oakhanger, the first station after the interchange at Bordon. The middle part shows some of the siding complexes and the right hand end , the main camp workshops and barracks
The layout includes most of the LMR engines and stock made in the last 50 years along with a range of scratch-built and modified engines, stock and buildings for the site. With a number of loops, lots of sidings there is always something moving to entertain.
