Welcome to the Tyvale page at railwayz.co.uk - This page features my 00 Gauge Loft layout built in 2003/4. The layout is a modern image layout, exhibiting diesel stock, and the odd steam special. The Idea was to create a terminus station at the end of a branch line that would see some freight, light engine movements, and local passenger dmu's. I also like to imagine there's a small freight siding further up the branch (out of sight) and that freight comes into Tyvale to run around its train and leave again! so I have built a run around loop outside of the station area just for this purpose.
I have yet to master DCC, so the layout is not DCC! I have gone for the old style set up ;) - DC.. The layout has Isolated sections on every siding, And have to say - this is just as fun as DCC, But with more work! I have used a Gaugemaster Hand held for the layout that is linked up to a 16v AC transformer also from Gaugemaster. The lighting is also linked up to a separate Gaugemaster transformer running off 12v DC.
	Night Time Some night time shots of the layout. Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures these are webcam stills.
