More information

At this
show we will setup the 1:43,5 scale seven layout of Ton Trip "Tripton by
the Sea" this 9 meter (30 ft ) long layout will in operation
with rolling stock build by Ton Trip and Cor de Jong both promotors of the
scale seven standards of modelling.
It's the first time this beautiful layout
will presented in Germany. Scale seven is not a well-known way of modelling in
Germany so we promote scale seven for the German gauge 0 friends. We have a broad
collection of rolling stock engines, coaches and wagons to run at the layout.
There is no timetable but we run while we are talking with the interested
modellers.

The layout is designed for a point to
point operation so trains arrive in the station and after shunting they leave in the opposite direction. A push pull train with an Auto coach is typical for a GWR branch line and will regular
run with a Pannier tank engine. A GWR Dean Goods serve the goods trains with different
wagons for coal, parcels, livestock, fish and so on.

It's interesting to
see and feel the English way of modelling and operation.
