There is of course the Mike Lenz "Diesel switching depot" layout; Calder Northern own HO scale (and hopefully) N scale layouts where members can bring some stock to run if they wish. The small N scale layout in the "clubroom" will be there as well and we hope to have at least one track operating on the new HO layout if only to show how things are progressing.

"Be a Driver for a Fiver" BR class 03 rides!
