Description

SHMRC’s Eastwood layout represents the station area as it was shortly after the Great War. Eastwood was a station between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge which formed part of the Calder Valley Main Line from Manchester to Normanton.

The station was built by the Manchester and Leeds Railway, later to become the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, with the scene is dominated by Cockden Mill (known locally as Dan Crabtree’s). It was a mixed mill covering most of the textile processes, but especially dyeing.

P4 Gauge with analogue control.
