Romiley Junction is set in the Mid to late 1950s. Originally built in the 70s on Expanded Polystyrene. Recently, the layout has been completely rebuilt by club member Glynn Owen, and we could not be happier with the result! The old layout, due to it being built on polystyrene, was disintegrating rapidly, so the club felt we had no choice but to rebuild, but we wished to hold true to the original layout. To this end, wherever possible, all original buildings were kept and reused, where possible. However, only the station was remotely accurate to 1950s Romiley, and many of the buildings had become warped and weak over time. A vast amount of time went into repairing all the buildings and constructing new ones, where needed. Whilst the layout looks similar to the original, it was in fact completely rebuilt on a new twelve-foot by two-foot six board, with its own legs, with the track plan being slightly altered to account for the new length of the board.

We cannot wait to exhibit this layout across the North West, or beyond, as soon as we can get back to exhibiting!
