OO/HO African profile model railway in Kenya: 10 - the goods yard

Post by John Ashworth »

First item in the goods yard is the cattle loading dock (a wooden kit by Ancorton Models). Later there'll be a goods shed, and also a small loco shed for the yard pilot.

The cattle dock with some inhabitants - cows, and tribal pastoralists making sure than nobody rustles their prize cattle while they're in the strange environment of a town and railway station!

The goods shed, a Superquick card kit. The instructions were not the most comprehensive I've ever seen, and there was a bit of guesswork and improvisation.
