The Club layouts,
Below you will find a selection of layouts, click on the layout name
or photo (if present) for more information and photographs...
"N" Gauge
When our 'N' gauge layout was built, it was decided to make
the layout modular with common main boards which has the fiddle yard on
them and inter-changeable front modules.
The 2 main boards were originally 5.5 feet long by 3 feet wide giving
an overall layout size of 11 feet by 3 feet. A few years later, a 5ft
extension board was made that fitted between the end boards making the
layout 16ft overall
This configuration has allowed us to build a total, so far, of 4 "fronts"
but this has since been reduced to 3 operational "fronts".
The 3 layouts available are....
Anvilton

Though a fictitious layout, Anvilton may give the viewers
the impression that it could possibly be a location on the 'Settle to
Carlisle' line as the structures displayed on the layout are based on
actual buildings seen along this historic route
