This is the first of three videos taken at the Bentley (Calne) Model Railway Club's annual show held at the Calne Leisure Centre on Sunday 14th April 2024. This was the 28th exhibition organised by the Club and featured 12 layouts with a number or trade stands.
'Somerford' by Bentley MRC is an OO gauge layout which depicts an area bounded by Swindon, Bristol and Gloucester.
'Choates Lane' in N gauge was inspired by a competition organised by the N Gauge Society. The creators of the layout, Stuart Conlon and Tim Hitch based it on the area around Dagenham where the High SpeedOne line comes out of the tunnel from Stratford and there is a cement works and distribution depot.
'Fairwood Junction' is an 'OO' layout by Steve Jones and it is based on the real-life junction between Westbury (Wiltshire) and Frome (Somerset) where the Westbury (station) avoiding line re-joins the main line from Paddington to Penzance. Stone trains destined for the Somerset quarries can be seen along with typical passenger trains seen between 2015 and the present day including the HST.
'Norton Vale' is another OO gauge layout built by members of Nailsea and District MRC. It is based on a fictional location somewhere in Oxfordshire near Banbury on a truncated cross-country route in the early 1960's. The main station, Norton Vale, is connected to Lower Norton (where there is a dairy) by the small branch line.
