The layout was started as a private layout by one of our past members, George Dobbie.  Sadly George passed away and his widow donated the layout to the Club, we hope to compete the layout and make it operable.  It will not be easy to match George's very high modelling standards.  Below is the final layout plan of which one board, the station has been completed.

The layout was first exhibited as a static diorama at our recent (2006) show in Greenock Town Hall.  Below are some photographs of the station section built by George.  Click the individual pictures for a larger version (hit BACK to return).
