MORFA MAWR (ABERATH)
EM gauge, 4mm scale
By Ian & Michelle Sandell

 Morfa Mawr was originally planned as part of a narrow gauge line by the Vale of Rheidol Railway and despite later plans for a standard gauge railway submitted by the LA&NQLR it would only be built by the Cambrian Railway – albeit with a few deviations including running the line into Newquay crossing the Lampeter to Aberaeron line at Crossways. Work finally started in 1911 with completion just before the Great War and operated by the Great Western Railway. The layout is based circa 1970 on the coast of Cardigan Bay near Llanon between Aberystwyth and Aberaeron and consisted of a small single platform station with run round sidings for goods and coal. The later additional siding accommodated the provender shed.EM gauge Morfa Mawr measured 12’ x 18" with an 8’ scenic section and a 4’ sector plate fiddle yard at the southern end.
