Chris Hyde has exhibited before at Heywood Model Railway Group exhibitions with his model of Outwell Basin.
He has now built a second model for the exhibition circuit, this one depicting a metropolitan line which is about to become part of the underground network.
The model is about 14ft x 2ft in size and can be operated comfortably by one person.
Chris has been a member of the group for many years and for a large number of them he held the post of "Secretary" at the Heywood Model Railway Group.
This Model is available for Exhibitions
