Layouts :

All the layouts are functioning but the scenic development is not necessary complete.

N Gauge modules from Ian, Mike & Paul.

The modules are a dog-bone in a U configuration. UK outline in N gauge running with DCC control.. .

The turning loops, at each end have auto polarity changing which enables continuous running.

Mike's module is populated with Metcalf buildings.

Ian has a shuttle running along the back of his set of modules.

Paul's turninning loops provide 2 storage yards , one at each end of thel layout. One end is being sceniced.

The current idea is based round a Norman keep and bailey. .
