In the last few months I’ve made a collection of model railway designs as possibilities for a new layout. Whilst I wont end up building most of them I thought I’d share them here in the hope they might inspire other people.

Hi Jon!
I’ve left my Lost Stations Of Longdendale 00 layout in a house I just sold in Turkey!
The new house in Oxfordshire has a large double garage and extended workshop so I now plan to model the other half of Lost Woodhead in a new V‑shaped layout — Two Tunnels To London Road via Woodhead and Huddersfield.
Found your Woodhead planning interesting and have stolen the Penistone planning!! lol
Thanks for your expertise and insights…

Really useful plans. Your geometry layouts have helped me solved several problems. Many thanks!
These are great designs, I originally came from Sheffield and did my Train spotting at Midland and Victoria Station in the late 1950s, we used to climb over the wall at the back of the signal box on Sheaf Street and at the top of Duke Street, I know live in Bolton so my layout is representation of Bolton Trinity Street in the 1960s…nightmare 4 way crossing..
