The Abbey Road Group

Abbey Road is a current day, London Underground '00' scale, 'end to end' model railway layout. It features a fictitious split level station located somewhere in north-westLondon.

The rolling stock is a varied mixture of 'tube' size rolling stock. This includes Metromodels 1972, 1992 and 1996 tube stock, EFE heritage 1938 & 1959 tube stock together with a variety of engineering & departmental trains.

Viewing the layout from the front, to the left of the station trains negotiate reversing crossovers, before passing the signal cabin and sub station & disappearing underground into deep tube tunnels heading towards Central London. To the right, trains pass beneath the station over-bridge before leaving the platforms & passing out of sight into the right hand fiddle yard. The split level station features a familiar Charles Holden designed Underground station building sitting across the platforms below. On the station road over- bridge are shops & commercial premises including a McDonalds restaurant, Marks & Spencer and a Tesco Metro store.
