With growing interest amongst members in 7mm, the club have embarked on a new finescale 7mm layout.

The members involved in this layout have between them already amassed a large number of wagons, therefore the focus of the new layout will be either a large wagon fed warehouse or possibly a wagon repair facility - the requirement being to exhibit a wide variety of wagons and do plenty of shunting.

Baseboards: baseboard construction is of orthodox methods - ply on a ply frame with self contained legs. Each board measures 4ft wide by 2ft 6in deep. 6 boards form the scenic section giving a total display width of 24ft plus fiddle yards.

Trackwork: Track has being constructed by club members - most of whom have not attempted such before therefore a series of instructional sessions led by the most experienced member were held. Trackwork was built using C&L finescale components.

A new fiddle yard has just been completed for the January 2016 exhibition, consisting of a sector plate, main storage section and a turntable/traverser.
This gives us a total length of 37.5ft. Trackwork for this fiddle yard is proprietary PECO track.

We can operate with a single fiddle yard which gives us a total length of 26ft.
