Upsan Downs

O Gauge by
George Woolnough

Deep in the heart of Southern Railway territory you will find the market town of Upsan Downs.  Situated between the southern downs and the various seaside resorts.  The town is now starting to prosper again after the austere war years.  Almost two years have passed since hostilities ended and the town is now seeing a return of the holidaymakers and an increase in freight traffic.

The station building is based on Banstead on the line from West Croydon to Epson Downs and is built from foam board, card and Plasticard.  Most of the other buildings have been made using this method, whilst the watermill has been constructed from plywood and MDF covered with DAS modelling clay carved to represent the stonework.

Track is Peco with the points and double slips constructed from copper clad sleepers and rail.
