Yarnham WEBSITE  
Giles Mockford N gauge 2mm scale

Yarnham is a small seaside town in West Sussex close to the banks of the River Arun. The station is situated at the end of a branch off the former LBSCR Coastway route. In former years, there was a line that continued beyond the town to the harbour. Today the truncated remains form a headshunt for the wagon repair depot.

The station is served by various Mk I slam-door units working Coastway or Mid Sussex line services.

Freight consists mainly of civil engineers' wagons bound for the wagon repair depot. There is also Speedlink traffic including steel, which uses the yard to run round.

Trains are controlled by DCC, which is slightly more challenging in N gauge than in the larger gauges.
