Blackmore Vale
N Gauge Analogue
Blackmore Vale was the personal layout of one of our members, unfortunately unable to keep this as an ongoing project it has been taken over by the club becoming a club layout, the layout was in a very poor state of repair after many years of storage and was also completely missing one of its end boards.
The team who have worked their magic with this layout. Reconstructing the lost board keeping to the original format of the track layout as much as possible. Some changes were inevitable as we did not have any photographs of it previously to work from, so free license was given to the team to make it work. The layout is now fully functioning and it is planned to be at our exhibition in August 2024.
You could also become involved by joining the club, pop over to the contact us page to arrange a visit.
