Layout ideas

The first in hopefully an ongoing series. Tonight Amateur fettler brings you ...Dobson.
'Located upstream from Greymouth and snuggled into the bank of the Grey
River, Dobson as it was is dedicated to one thing and one thing only:
Coal. Passenger and goods facilities are virtually non existent, and
only a tiny loop is provided to allow freights to bypass small passenger
trains. The station plan is quite clearly divided into 3 parts: The
arrival yard and bins, the dispatch yard and the passenger facilities.
Pushing empties into the arrival yard must have been interesting for
train crews and train control alike as no shunting lead has been
provided. And if you tire of shunting the endless rakes of Q wagons,
there is always the never ending parade of trains passing on the main
from all points north and east; anything from small tanks wheeling coal
down from Blackball to J powered expresses preparing for the climb to
Otira, and the Daily railcars to Westport.'

Photos of the location to come.
