Llanfair Rhyd by Aaron and Nigel Matthews

Llanfair Rhyd depicts the upper terminus of a “Ffestiniog” style narrow gauge railway in North Wales.

The timeframe has been chosen to be fairly loose to allow running as if a preserved railway as well as in late Victorian times.

The layout had been designed to run as DC or DCC, however now runs always as DCC with sound fitted locomotives. The track plan has been designed to allow connection, as a module, with other Freem009 layouts and has appeared several times in this format. The layout is free standing with lighting.

The layout is booked to appear at several shows in 2026, and has appeared at the following exhibitions.
