WHAT MAKES IT INNOVATIVE?

Pete Waterman’s ‘O’ gauge take on Leamington, with associated scenes depicting nearby Hatton Bank and Brinklow, is one of the most ambitious in the country. Not only does it push DCC and constructional technology to its limit but Pete’s ambition is to make it more realistic to look at than

Pendon, and the key to that is perspective. The trains and buildings close to the railway are 100% scale. But those further away reduce to 96% or 94% scale. Pete and his team built rough mock-ups first to ensure the perspective is right before commencing on a proper build.
