Crouch Valley Line
Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2003 4:01 am
Hello,
For anyone thats interested I've just started building the Crouch Valley branch line which runs from Wickford to Southminster, Essex.
The line is only 16 and a half miles but its my first effort so i didn't want to over do it!
The line is a single track branch line (with a two track section at Fambridge) which escaped the axe in the 60's due to its proximity to Bradwell Nucleur power station.
Stations are Wickford, Battlesbridge, Woodham Ferrers, Fambridge, Althorne, Burnham on Crouch and Southminster.
It will be set in the Network SouthEast era of the 90's when the line was electrified.
Its just a practice route really with a chance to get used to building a route and making some models in GMAX.
However if it goes well I will start on a major project next.
The line is looking quite good so far with all the river crouch in place and most of the terrain sorted. Taking longer then i realised though.
If anyone is interested I will upload some pics soon.
