Hennock was inspired by my eldest daughter whilst sat on the platform of Staverton Station in Devon.
In an effort to get away from Ready to Run I chose 3mm scale to model this layout having previously exhibited a large Tri-ang TT layout. I hope the ramblings that all to frequently appear will be of use to you no matter what scale!
The track diagram shows a simple passing station with a couple of sidings. All track is PECO Hom-12mm gauge with turnouts operated by the wire in tube method. Control is provided by Gaugemaster HH with feedback.
Locos are mostly whitemetal kits running on etched chassis powered by Mashima 9/16 motors with Branchlines 40:1 gearboxes. Wheels are Markits with the latest 3mm Society products being introduced.
Coaches consist of Society 'B' Sets and coaches from etches by Worsley Works, Brynkits and 3SMR. A vast range of wagons are from the 3mm Society list with Finney and Smith providing the China Clay , Gunpowder and a few etched kits.
Hennock has appeared in Railway Modeller and Model Rail.

More from Langley.

As I was doing some posts, I happened to see that my mate, Bob Brown, had actually posted on his blog-The Sidings-about the same blasted Fox!
So I have given it a few days before posting my rendition of the same subject. This one is just having a quick peek at possible dinner over the other side of the wall. There, pecking about (do chickens graze?). are some of the Langley chickens totally unaware of the impending danger.
Must get someone to check for those free range eggs sometime.

Langley 3mm Animals.

Slowly I have been painting the sets of animals purchased at Warley. Produced by Langley Models, there is quite a selection to be had.
I will bore you over the next few days with various of their products.
First up, and probably one of the most overlooked subjects is a dog doing what comes naturally- watering the local signpost.
It's so small- I just wonder whether anyone will notice?
