  • Today on The Railway Room is a quick look at Tan-y-Llyn, a 009 narrow gauge model railway layout by Steve Flay.
    A freelance creation, the layout is particularly inspired by the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways. Built in an 'L' shape, it consists of a lower terminus Rhyd in a small town and a scenic section around the passing station at Tan-y-Llyn, including a dramatic curve on a hillside ledge above a lake.
    Tan-y-Llyn has appeared at a number of exhibitions and featured in The Railway Modeller (June 2017). It was filmed here at the 009 Society 50th Anniversary Exhibition at Statfold Barn Railway in September 2023.

    Stunning. My wife and I have returned to 009 with the recent RTR rolling stock available. Our last completed 009 layout was Newton Halt. Our new one is going to be a freelance Ffestiniog layout structurally similar to the one recently completed by the Hornby magazine staff. We will look to create the OOO factor that Tan y lynn provides. Brilliant stuff.

      Sounds great, best of luck with the build! I must confess that Tan y Llyn was a big influence on what I'm hoping to achieve in my own layout, which I really must get back to doing more work on!

      The main scenic area is 7'3" by 2', whilst the terminus and fiddleyard is 8'6" by 1'; they are arranged in an L shape. If you can find a copy, the track plan is in the June 2017 Railway Modeller
