Barham Junction
Barham Junction is our new layout replacing Marshmoor. Below is a diary (& photos) of our progress building the new layout.
April 2016- The layout is close to completion in regards to the electrical side of things and it is hoped that the full layout is fully operational for the transport festival on the 25th June this year. Once the wiring is complete work will soon begin on the scenic side of things and hopefully, before too long, the layout will start coming together.
September 2015 -
With the September Open Day fast approaching, even more wiring is being completed on Barham Junction in preparation. After our Open Day, there will be far more work happening in the run up to the new year and our January Open Day in which we hope a line will be running!

Wiring is progressing and the layout managed to have a few lines working for our Transport and Model Festival. We placed some temporary buildings and displayed some of our second hand stock on Barham. We hope to start scenic and building work after the wiring is complete.

Wiring is progressing on Barham Junction with a majority of the front boards wired expertly. A number of smaller projects from fixing some buildings to making all the points connected are now taking place. We are very happy with the way the layout is moving forward and we hope you are as well.

April Open Day - 11th April 2015 -
We had a great day at Barham Junction for the April Open Day. We had a lot of interest shown and we had some great comments. Part of the layout was able to run today and it was good to see progress on the layout. We had a special showing of Greater Anglian railway stock on the layout which looked amazing!

March - April 2015
The first large area of work has started, arguably the most important part of the whole layout; the wiring. Sadly Barham Junction will not be running in it's entirety but we may have a one track segment in operation on the day. We are still looking for ideas for what we can include in the layout so if you have any ideas then we would love to hear them.

The layout has been given a name: Barham Junction! We thank everyone who came up with suggestions and all of which were taken into consideration. It was decided by members working on the layout to name the new layout Barham Junction. We will have new information after the April Open Day. The layout may not be running completely by then but we are working very hard to get it working as soon as possible for the public to enjoy.
