So let's see, it's number 3!

At 3 it's a Lynton and Barnstaple layout....Chelfham

That viaduct is just fantastic! It's a simple layout, one loop, one siding and a circular run with hidden sidings behind. The stock (Southern days) is very nicely lined and built although the langley stuff is somewhat eclipsed by the backwoods...

The sheer scale of the layout means the railway is part of the landscape and not the other way around! My only criticisms are the roads are a little too shiny and regular in appearance and some of the trees aren't totally believable.

You can see more in the March and April 2000 Railway Modeller
