Alton section
Alton is the second OO gauge layout to be built by the Group. The layout is based on Alton station as it appears in the present day, enabling the section to display a wide variety of stock, including standard mainline passenger trains, and the more unusual locos seen on The Mid-Hants preserved railway, which also runs into Alton station.
Welcome to the Alton Model Railway Group website
The website aims to provide information about the Group and what we do, but we have also included content that we hope will educate, enlighten and even amuse.
We hope you enjoy the site.
