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: To debut at the 2022 Hull Model Railway Show - November 12th & 13th.

 

Llyn Madoc: 'EM' (4mm/ft - 18.2mm gauge)

Owner: Steve Farrow, Size: 16ft by 7ft 'U' shaped. A might have been passing station on the secondary line from Chester to Ruabon based in the summer of 1939. Availability: TBA

 

Stamley: '009' (4mm/ft - 9mm gauge)

A new 009 layout is under construction at the clubrooms. While initially based on the RVR format it is intended the the new layout will be flexible enough to be able to be used in different eras using a wide variety of stock. 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.
Availabilty: 2023/4
