PROJECT OVERVIEW:

Shifting Sands is the name of my 0-9 (7mm scale, 9mm gauge) railway modelling project, an attempt to model a seaside miniature railway in a compact space of 3ft x 2ft, on a modified cork notice board....

I have always been interested in miniature railways, which I put down to visits to Fairbourne and New Romney in my early years! The idea of modelling one has been in my head for few years now, but progress has been slow, going through several changes in track plan and locale. Things seem to be progressing now though....

Please take the time to visit my other Fotopic sites covering real miniature railways and my modelling in 4mm scale/00 gauge (and others).
