Braithwell: '00' (4mm/ft - 16.5mm gauge)

Owner: Hull MRS, Size: 18ft by 9ft. Based on the ex GCR lines, just inside North East Wales, designed to cover up to three periods, late 50s Steam, mid 60s steam/diesel and late 60s green/blue diesels. Availability: TBA

Walton: 'N' (2mm/ft - 9mm gauge)

Owner: Hull MRS, Size: 14ft by 3ft 6ins (4.3meters by 1.07meters)

The proposed layout will be a 4-track, covered, station emerging into the scenic area at one end and departing as a 2-track main line – allowing us to operate full-length passenger trains. A bay platform departs (approximately) parallel to the main lines; leading to either a (yet to be finalised) MPD, Industrial complex or Canal Basin and having a branch which disappears through the back scene to a dedicated 2-track fiddle yard (which may also utilise cassettes); it also connects to the main lines by virtue of crossovers.
The layout is a ‘merry-go-round’ oval with a 10-track fiddle yard* to the rear – two sets of 5 sidings. The scenic portion approximately 10’ between the entry & exit points but, with a townscape above the station and a hillside above the tunnel, the overall scenic frontage is between 12 & 14’ long. Availability: 2023/4

Theikley Valley Railway: '00' (4mm/ft -16.5mm gauge)

Owner: Hull MRS, Size: 7.8m x 0.9m (24ft x 3ft) + 0.9m (3ft) operating space behind the layout.

This new layout under construction in the clubrooms will be based loosely on the Keighley & Worth Railways Keighley and Ingrow Stations. It has 4.8m (16ft) of scenic frontage.
The overhead Theikley station is the starting point from the fiddle yard & will have just the rear of the station modelled. The lines will appear from below the station & be based in a valley setting so there is high ground along the front of the layout dropping down to the railway and then rising towards the backscene. Availability: TBA
