South Anglesey Light Railway
00, London Midland & Scottish Railway 1938
Description
At the start of the twentieth century there
were several attempts to build a railway 8½-mile (13.6km) between
Gaerwen and Newborough. The last attempt being the standard gauge
South Anglesey Light Railway in 1909.
I have rewritten history with the
London North Western Railway (LNWR), stepping forward to assist
funding. In 1923 the LNWR and other companies merging to form the
London Midland & Scottish Railway. The layout is set in 1938 with
the timetable is at its not very high peek. The service is a mix of local
passenger trains some ‘semi-fast’ by missing the halts and goods
trains that often stop to shunt the sidings. The occasional
excursion train is seen. Trains are mostly hauled by Jintys, 3Fs and
4Fs with the occasional bigger engine.
