Confirmed Layouts:
War and Peace Rolvenden:

(left) "OO" 4mm/foot scale 16.5mm gauge (Chelmsford & District MRC layout).
This layout is a faithful representation of the Rolvenden 840ft. station yard on the Kent and East Sussex Railway, as it was in the 1940s, covering both wartime and peacetime rail traffic.The buildings with the exception of the oast house are scratch-built using photographs and plans from various reference books. The cottage is a replica of Colonel Stephen's Staff Cottage which was at Rolvenden and has been renovated and now at Northiam Station.
North Level Railway: 16.5mm narrow gauge. The North Level Railway is a fictitious narrow gauge railway located in the “North Level” of “The Fens” set in the 1930 era and built to a scale of 7mm to the foot running on O/16.5 track. All locomotives and rolling stock are built from kits or “kit bashed” (modified) on 4mm (OO) chassis. 
Marks Hall Shed:  OO Gauge.

Winkles Yard: OO Gauge. (Above) Goods Yard (shunting yard) Layout based in 1974-78 (BR) an exercise in background perspective and weathering.

Botterill Street: O Gauge. (right) Botterill Street Yard depicts a small urban yard area, which can be operated as either a wagon repair facility or a locomotive stabling point. The layout is normally operated with stock typical of the Eastern Region circa 1958-1962.
Copsey: OO gauge (32A Model railway club) A very modern station layout – using mainly DMU’s 2000-2005 also shows that you can run plenty of different options in a relatively small operating space.

Cromer High: OO gauge (32A Model railway club). This is the clubs exhibition layout having been completely dismantled, and work is well in hand on a major re-vamp & expansion to include the former goods yard and Cromer Junction. Goods Yard situated one side, Engine shed and turntable the other side of the station. 
Broadfield TMD: OO Gauge.
Lowbech: OO Gauge
1950s Maldon Market Hill: "EM" 18.2mm gauge (Member of Chelmsford & District MRC). Due to the prosperity after rationing was eased during the mid-1950's Market Hill station has been rebuilt with a new trackplan that has allowed longer trains and more trains to make use of the station and is now known as Market Hill, Maldon. The pilot loco now has its own siding and does not have to stay in the open air when its not working as it can shelter under the 'rebuilt' over-bridge. The original has been exhibited in its current form since 1998 (1996 not complete) and the new version has been exhibited since June 2016

Branksdowne Junction:
British N scale layout, depicting a fictitious location in North West England in the Modern Era. It is the point at which two separate tunnel bores under the rolling Pennines come together. (Right) View of the Station and yard before the wires went in. This junction is now fully wired with EZ Line centenary.
Blackwells Brewery Co: EM gauge (Mid Essex Model Railway Club).
East Sternham: OO Gauge (The 31A (Cambridge) Model Railway Club). A terminus station on a branch line from the Liverpool Lime Street to Norwich main line in East Anglia set in the modern image era.

Hadderton: N Gauge (Felixstowe N Gauge Club). (above) The layout is a fictitious location on the Great Western and Great Central Joint Railway, depicted circa 1960. The station is typical of those on the line, with GWR style buildings, two perfectly straight platforms and two through tracks. The station includes a bay platform for a branch line. There is also a small goods yard, a brewery and a sewage works. Locomotives and rolling stock from the former LNER, GWR and LMS can be seen together with items of BR origin.
