Drawing created from the original sketch by the then layout co-ordinator Jon Riley see below notes for changes made.

===========================================================

The layout has now been altered fron the original plan with a different station area and the viewing side reversed from the original. In addition the rotating fiddle yard has been replaced by a cassette system which is more reliable and easier to use.

The overall view of the scenic sections of the model. Much work has now been done on the scenery and it is now begining to look a lot better than this time last year. The next big job is to sort out the wiring faults.

The model has now had its viewing side completely reversed from the original plan and the board with the station on it has been extended. This is the rebuilt station which is now longer than the original.

Again the scenic area showing the cottages and the lane in front of them. The reversal of the viewing side has made this very much better than the original plan

The far right of the layout showing the factory (not yet fully completed) and the over bridge providing the scenic break into the fiddle yard.

The layout will made its first exhibition appearance at Heywood in March 2010
