Layout at a Glance

Sandborne is a freelance layout, based somewhere in the South of England, with a large terminus at a seaside resort. It is an out and back double tracked layout with a separate loop to enable continous running of two trains, as well as the out and back trains. It is sceniced in the style of south west England, and yes, there is a castle!!!!
