Love Lane is a fictitious location some near Chigwell in North West London set in the period around 1958. It’s on the Great Eastern railway coming out of Liverpool Street and continues through Love Lane onto Ongar and Dunmow and then into East Anglia. During operation quite a variety of trains will be seen ranging from a Quint-Art operating in and out of London, a Push-Pull going into the country together with various goods trains and through passenger services.
The layout has been built by members of the East Anglian Scale Seven Group over the past few years. Its inspiration came from a member of the group who passed away and left the embryo layout to us. This gift gave us the impetus to start building something and without being too big headed we’re quite pleased with the result. We’ve used a variety of techniques in its construction including etching, 3 D printing and laser cutting. Careful focus has been given to achieving an overall natural colour to the scene.
