The North American section's main layout is HO gauge, 25' x 7', and like most of our previous layouts is designed with
two main aims uppermost in mind: to run long trains in the American style, and to run plenty of them, continuously.
The main line is a folded figure-of-eight, and allows us to run several trains in each direction,
and the overhead circuit, shuttle and logging section all provide additional running. Always
movement on this layout!
There is no particular region or era the layout is modelled on, giving scope for a wide variety of
stock to be used, and the members between them have an extensive and varied collection of HO gauge stock.
