Twickenham Junction ‘00’

Twickenham Junction is a complex OO finescale project to recreate the Victorian station at Twickenham as though re-development had not taken place during the 1940s/50s, leaving the rather ramshackle older station in use.

Once complete, the scenic area will be 25 foot long and a little under 3 foot deep.

The layout is set in the early 1960s to allow a wide range of trains to be operated. Southern Region steam as well as electric & diesel traction will be showcased.

Members are building and preparing stock for future exhibition service replicating a typical Summer Saturday alongside extras of which we have photos or references.

Principal buildings for Twickenham Junction are scratch-built and many are largely complete – there’s still more to do though!

The layout is DCC operated using Digitrax equipment for train operation. Track wiring is complete, control of points and signals uses MERG CBUS electronics.

Twickenham Junction will be the first scenic front to be linked to the Club’s 14-road 00/H0 Common Fiddle Yard laid with PECO code 100 track.

Like all the Club projects, Twickenham Junction has suffered from the extended shutdown of the club so has not progressed as far as we had hoped.
