SKIPTON & DISTRICT RAILWAY SOCIETY

The Society owns three exhibition layouts in different scales and gauges. Two of these layouts (Lofthouse in Gauge O and Dolores, American Sn3) are "complete", the third (Wards End, Gauge O) was shown in unfinished state at our own exhibition in August 2007 and should be ready for general exhibition in 2008.
