Witham is a fictitious 00 gauge layout based on the geographical area of Witham in Somer-nset. Set in the late 50s, early 60s, locomotives are predominantly from the Western and Southern regions with the twilight of steam and early diesel types being showcased. The layout features a secondary mainline connecting London down to the west country as well as a branch line connecting Witham to Bristol, via Wells. Set in the summertime, when in addition to the normal traffic levels there is the addition of seaside specials and holiday charters. The layout is fully DCC with use of sound decoders made for the locomotives. This was my first layout that I had attempted to build since my childhood efforts over 40 years previously! Started in 2016 as a retirement project Witham took 4 years to complete and like all layouts will never be finished as items are added and improvements made.
