Peasevern Yard 7mm/O
Peasevern Yard is inspired by the Midland Railway Avon Street yard in Bristol, nestled in the shadow of Bristol Temple Meads station. In the late 1970’s the yard was used for the transport of Cement, Molasses and occasional Scrap trains with trains being handled by class 03’s and later class 08’s. The sidings were removed in the 1980’s and little trace of the railway remains today.
The layout is a loose copy of a layout I had built previously in 4mm, Peafore Yard with the same trackplan and a number of the scenes and buildings replicated on this layout. The upper level of the layout incorporates a small part of Temple Meads station and the now demolished parcel conveyor.
Operationally the yard incorporates a private scrap siding while the rearmost siding is used as a holding siding for wagons going to the United Distillers and Blue Circle cement sidings (assumed to be off scene)
