For the second year in a row Hornby Magazine are running their ‘Layout of the Year’ competition for 2008. Readers are invited to vote online or in writing via the address listed on Hornby Magazines website.
This year the entries have been split into two categories, club layouts and individual layouts. All of the layouts have featured in the magazine over the last 12 months.
My personal votes have go to the club layout of Grimsby Town Modellers Group. Their layout ‘Yarborough’ in 00 gauge which is a modern era, post modernisation layout set in 2000-2008.
