GAUGE O GUILD

Liverpool and West Lancs. 'O' Gauge Group (LAWLOGG)

Coming up to our next OPEN DAY (Sat. 15th Nov 2025), our members have been working on ‘Aberbraan’, a modular layout for narrow-gauge, with standard gauge to be bolted on the front in due course. We hope to have a few trains running on the quarry baseboard, while progress on the town scene might not be quite as far advanced. The idea is that either board can operate individually, or joined together. Some progress has been made on our new modern-image wagon works but it’s been a busy few months with other matters taking priority though we hope to have the odd train trundling on the upper level. Our existing 3 layouts plus test track will be available for visitors to run their locomotives and stock, while the Merseyside Area Group of MERG (which meets monthly at LAWLOGG) will be showing some examples of what they get up to, including home-made DCC controllers, point/signal control with ready-made and kit-based units for ‘pocket money’ outlay using free control software. Admission is free but donations are welcome. Light refreshments will be available. There is free parking in the grounds and nearby (alongside the park). Easy public transport options are nearby. You might even be able to pick up a ‘pre-loved’ bargain from our sales stand. Go to https://LAWLOGG.UK/Visit/ for more details.
