Glen Dochart is a privately owned layout that is exhibited and operated by East Kilbride Model Railway Club. The construction of the layout has been based on the practices of the Callander & Oban line of the Caledonian Railway.
Mordaunt Street runs parallel to the London Road extension line of the former Caledonian Railway between Strathclyde Junction and London Road Junction. This area of south east Glasgow is the setting for the model. In the 19th century this part of Glasgow was heavily developed with a wide variety of industries and many of these were served by the railways.
