Might as well get this down somewhere as plans start to solidify :D
After discussion with my likely partner in crime, we're shooting for the original (wow, how far back was that?) idea I had.
Onnybrook Junction will be set between Craven Arms and Marsh Farm Junction: it's a smallish through station on the LMS/GWR joint line from Hereford to Shrewsbury: the date is late summer 1934 (with a tiny bit of leeway to allow me to run a 4-4-0 County (all of which were scrapped by 1933). Track plan to follow (it's on the other computer) but basically it's typical of that line in that it's two through platforms, and then a refuge siding on one side, and a loop and some goods sidings on the other, and the classic crossover with single slip feeding the loop. We don't yet have space for a full oval, but we do have a lot of length, so currently it'll be about 15' with a fiddle yard either end.
Someday, I may yet have a go at Craven Arms and Stokesay, but, as they say, This Is Not That Day.
