Inside this issue:

LAYOUTS

'Davidson Parkway' (OO). Constructed by a Network Rail engineer, this West Coast Main Line tribute boasts a quad track continuous loop, and impressive station terminus.

'Catsfield' (OO). From formative memories, came this picture-perfect model, with life-like qualities. Nick Palette explains his journey into fact-based fiction.

'Melcombe Magna' (O). Indoor operation for gloomy winter evenings, or outdoor operation for more clement weather – this feature-filled layout permits both.
