The N scale group

The N Scale Group has over 250 ft of modules, taking full advantage of the smaller scale to run long trains. Monthly meets are usually attended by around 12 'operating' members who assemble a modular layout, the configuration of which varies each month. The layout is Digitrax DCC controlled. Many other members and guests with N scale interests attend to watch and talk trains, discuss module and scenery techniques and issues related to DCC operation. Rolling stock varies from period passenger trains to modern unit trains and most things in between. New members and guests are encouraged to bring along trains to put on the layout. Details of forthcoming meets can be found on the 'Diary page'.

In addition to the Kegworth meets the group participates in public shows and are regular attendees at the annual N-Trak convention which has been held in Bournemouth for the past few years.

It is proposed to set up a large modular layout combining modules from several different groups. An initial trial was held in Dec 2007 at Crowle near Worcester.We combined our modules with Snakebend Railroad.The resulting combined layout was 100' loop to loop single track with a 16' branch making for lots of meets and interesting operation. Photos of the layout can be seen here.
