Helston

          Designed as a through station the line was never extended to the Lizard, instead a bus service was provided. The railway certainly tried to provide a service to the community but closure to passenger traffic came on 5th November 1962. Within two years the goods traffic had ceased and the line was gone forever.

          The layout is an accurate model based on a series of articles published in Model Railway News. The period modelled is 1946-48. Research together with building has taken well over eighteen years to accomplish. The layout is fully signalled with working signals and is operated to an original timetable (displayed) covering a full week-day.
