Today’s layouts will be presented in alphabetical order, to avoid excessive favouritism!  We start with Albert Street Parcels (OO).  A nice little shunting layout, imagining that the viewer is standing on a platform in a large station, looking over to the parcels depot.

Jane’s Creek (EM), models the area around Janes’ Creek, Strood, Rochester, around 1920.  It is compressed to 2/3 full size to make it fit the owner’s house and car.  Great to see some pre-grouping modelling, and the sailing barges are lovely models in themselves.

On to Llanfair Caereinion (OO9) a scale model of the line’s terminus in GWR days.  No ‘twee’ narrow gauge modelling here, but a real railway trying to make ends meet.  And full marks to Andy Cundick, who was very happy to chat whilst operating the layout!

I’ve seen Obbekaer (P87) a number of times, but will always stop for a look.  A model of a Danish branch line in the 1950’s, it’s a very simple layout but the rather different rolling stock and railway plant are worth a close inspection.

And finally for today, Rossiter Rise (OO), London Underground and British Railways steam and electric.  Another familiar layout, but again worth perusing for the eclectic selection of rolling stock, nearly all kit or scratch built.
