Engine shed

BARTON INGS PIPE & TILEWORKS presented by Charlie Stewart. Found on the banks of the Humber this is a loose representation of the last surviving claypit railway in Britain, until its closure around 1999/2000. The length of the line was less than 0.5km. A simple construction of wooden baseboard, plywood buildings covered in plaster. The scale/gauge combination is Gn15 (G scale scenery/stock on 00 gauge track) A plethora of mud/rust and general grime was then added to so capture the “dirty” atmosphere of this site.
