Model Railway Club

Background History

The year is 1943 and Britain is at war with Germany.

Under wartime emergency conditions all station names have been removed. The purpose was to cause the maximum amount of confusion to enemy paratroopers, (who were expected to drop from the skies at any moment disguised as nuns). An unfortunate consequence was the confusion of the passengers, officials and lines management.

Location

Somewhere in North Wales, (Sorry can’t be more precise, there’s a war on you know!) there is a little-fach (small railway) doing its best against the enemy. (The Germans, not the English for once.) The line has received a major boost in traffic from the new mysterious military building, rumoured to have something to do with explosives. all the locals know for sure is that it receives many trains of military supplies.

This little junction on its main line, with the branch line going off to LlanCensored is like many narrow gauge lines, alternating between absolute quiet and complete mayhem.

The line is of course fictitious, although some items of rolling stock may be identifiable. These of course have been transferred from the proper homes to assist with the war effort.(Well that’s our excuse anyway).

Dienw is complete and available for exhibitions.
