At least two of the layouts on display will be presented by TRAINSHED members and will include St Aiden’s Cross, which was featured last year in its embryonic state but now has some scenic work.

Oxendale, built by TRAINSHED’s youngest member, will also be making its show debut. A computer-controlled N Gauge layout based on Holgate just outside York will also be on display. There will be a selection of continental and American based layouts.

A special guest layout this year is the 2022 winner of the Railway Modeller Cup.
