Here you can take a tour of Dawlish in OO with a driver’s eye view. This was filmed by putting a GoPro camera on a wagon in front of the loco.
We start in the main fiddleyard (as if coming from Paddington) and proceed around the back of Newton Abbot, before emerging onto the seawall at Dawlish. We then go through the tunnels into Newton Abbot before heading along the 4-track section to Aller Junction.
At Aller Junction we head right towards the Torbay fiddleyard. This marks the end of the line currently; eventually there will be an extension to Kingswear, but in the meantime, lots of ballasting of track to be done!
Let’s see what happens when we leave a comment on the DawlishinOO website!
Many thanks for your comment – that was really useful!
