Ivetsgate Yard

 Welcome to the site for my small model railway layout called Ivetsgate Yard

This site will stay here for reference and to have a browse through but there are no more updates as these are all now on the site above.

 

Please also check out my loft layout website Sole Hill Railway

Where it all started:                                     

I have a big loft layout, and I wanted to add things like ballast and hills but I haven't come up with a suitable track layout. Also I didn't want to go straight into scenic modelling. (When I begin on my larger layout I will create a website for it then but I'm sure I will be very occupied with this one at the moment)

Therefore I thought it a good idea to practise on a small layout. The layout name is part of my name shortened and flipped backwards (stevie - stevi - ivets) and it actually works really well.   

Being a teenager, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on expensive scenery and especially DCC. Therefore I am sticking to DC power as all of my loco's are DC and I don't want to replace or convert them. I will also try to make some of the scenic objects.

 I will keep this site updated with what I do and how I do it and also with pics. :D and please sign my guestbook when you've looked around.
