Welcome to Loading Gauge!
My names Lucy and this is my model railway journey. My latest OON Gauge model railway layout build will be based on Buxton, with the towns station and adjacent TMD. I'll also showcase some of my other projects as they happen, such as weathering and occasional outings.
I am also building a TT120 Exhibition Layout, which I will show you in several videos over the coming weeks.
