Introduction

Welcome to Broughton Vale Tramway. This HOn30 layout was built with the collective talents of a small group of modelling friends, to encourage each other, and to demonstrate the possibilites of modelling narrow gauge railroads in a small space.

Broughton Vale Tramway was inspired by the small logging operations once so prevalent in Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand between the late 1800s and mid 1900. These small companies contributed much to the early development of many countries, and have an historic character all their own. It is this atmosphere, embodied in the homespun equipment and "make-do" attitude, that Broughton Vale Tramway seeks to recreate in miniature form.
