This is another narrow gauge offering and is based on the Gravetts’ 0-16.5 layout, ‘Llandydref’. This layout was 8′ by 2′ overall so I wondered what I could squeeze into half that length in (roughly) half the scale. The minimum radius on the plan is 6″ which will severely restrict the rolling stock which could be used (but what would you expect in 4′?!).
Possible improvements: More length would allow for wider curves.

Could certainly be a small Welsh coal mine or a slate quarry, with the ’station’ (it is a station in the center?) for the workers. Several trains per day at shift-change, plus all of the activity of shipping the product. It could be done!
