 | 24th Feb 2007 | Saint Hilda (36 images)
A small layout, suitable for exhibitions, with GWR standard gauge and narrow gauge interchange. In a considerably updated form, and with an extension. Photographs are included of the layout at the York show at Easter 2009.

 | 12th Aug 2006 | Hungate 7 mm (O gauge) (45 images) 
A slim 26ft. long layout very slowly developing with just a small area of the wagon shops suitable for photographs, although incomplete.
This is east central York. The prototype does not exist, but a branch of the NER came off of the Layerthorpe branch and this model is an extension of this, past a wagon works and a foundry (which did exist and is underneath the Defra HQ at Peasholme Green) to terminate very close to the town centre with a small station and grain store (directly across the river from a truly rail served granary which is now the Rowntree wharf flats). The DVLR no longer terminates at Layerthorpe but comes right into town, and would have given far better access to the shopping centre than ever actually existed in York. Layerthorpe goods was very large and, with the gas works, electricity works and DVLR handled a lot of different goods, including SMBP traffic etc. so the wagon works will permit a catholic selection of rolling stock to appear. The foundry will also permit Sand, Pig iron, Plate, mineral etc. wagons.
Further commentary given with some of the photographs.

 | 18th Mar 2006 | Littlebeck NER 4mm EM layout (17 images) 
A small NERly terminus station modelled as during WW1 when timber was in short supply and being exploited. Modelled by Andy Crawshaw and Alan Grice with ballast train by Dick Dring. Since these photographs the layout has been altered as suitable for early BR period.

 | 16th Mar 2006 | Ingleside mixed 4mm 00 (57 images)
The largest of the layouts owned and operated by the Ebor GRM. Representing a fictitious railway influenced by the railways of the North East of England. It is a large continous loop with a through station with a yard and small rail served works. One end has a viaduct, occupation crossing etc, and the other has a recently constructed Locomotive shed. There is no control over what is permitted to run, as the photographs show, the quality and origin being varied.
