Cheshire Railway Modellers

This is my OO gauge Motive Traction Depot - I have been busily trying to finish the first section of Challingbrook as I want to get started on the second baseboard. It is meant to be going to exhibition in October and I think its possible to complete them both and all my other projects by then!

I have been changing quite a lot on the layout, mainly scenery just generally neatening it up and of course adding more buildings, the bridge and detailing. I have also started to paint the large retaining walls at the back of the layout.

Tumbledown Wharf is a small O scale layout using 14mm to represent 2ft gauge track.

I have been building and converting a Scorcher/Nipper kit. I ordered the chassis from N drive productions and was impressed with it, also it fits the kit exactly. I have made alterations to the back of the model and also added a few extra details. It will be DCC fitted with a miniture chip underneath. The body looks slightly sloped in the pictures but thats only because it isnt fixed together yet and the Bogie wheel under the cab isnt made yet ( this had to be rebuilt as the chip also fits under here). I also want to add a walkplate to the sides of the locomotive and build some extra fittings around the cylinders. I also have to fit piping and such like. Still some way to go on this one.

I converted a Parkside dundas 4 wheel coach into a Box Diesel. It isnt finished as yet, still has to have its lights and glazing fitted and then be chipped. It runs on a bachmann GP 0-6-0 chassis that I have heavily chopped up to convert it to DCC. All the chassis needs is a DCC Chip.

The layouts are designed for exhibition use, Nikki is based in the south of England, please use this link for enquiries.
