Todays featured layout is Fitzwilliam Basin in 7mm narrow gauge.

FITZWILLIAM BASIN 0-9 by Andrew Booth
Fitzwilliam Basin is a fictional O9 layout inspired by buildings in and around Elsecar a village in South Yorkshire, this old industrial complex started out life as the Earl Fitzwilliam’s workshops for his Mines and Ironworks before becoming the workshops for the NCB and then British Coal. A number of the buildings are accurate representations of existing structures in Elsecar, such as the Newcomen Pump Engine, the old Mill and Elsecar Church but repositioned to give the feel of a small industrial complex based loosely in the 1930s to 1940s.
