Barsborough Market is the club’s second O gauge layout, and will be the first club layout to use DCC control.

The location is fictional, but is somewhere in the East Midlands. Barsborough Market will not be found on any map, and exists only in the imagination of the club’s O gauge modellers, who wanted to build a small terminus served by predominately LNER and LMS stock. The station includes a goods shed and parcels bay. There is a small single road engine shed and a carriage road with a washing platform. The four road fiddle yard can accommodate trains of up to four coaches and a loco and is hidden by five buildings of different architectural styles faced with brick embossed plasticard.

The semaphore and ground signals have been constructed and are currently being installed. Limited running sessions are taking place from time to time but the station building, point rodding and signal cables still need to be added, so if you would like to help with these, or any other aspects of the layout, please come along and have a chat with us.
