I took the layout out on the garden table , grabbed an assortment of tools and took a deep breath. Then, with a nervous chisel, the work started.
Actually, it always amazes me how quickly destroying something can happen, in contrast with the hours put in to creating it. In this case, I was trying to be fairly clinical.
The track and electrics need removing, but with a mind to laying standard gauge track. Some extra clearance would be needed too, and I think the history of the line will tell that either passenger services ceased upon the re-laying.. or that a new small timber platform was built.
Anyway - so far so good. Some more fettling to get things level once I decide upon the plan.. but this is the state of play so far..

Good to see some model railway progress Martin, even if it is of the destructive sort... I look forward to seeing progress on Mk2, hopefully OO or EM will work out better for you than 009 did, I'm glad you've been able to keep those lovely buildings.
