Layouts specifically designed for Britain's top manufacturer can be found in Hornby PlansReal-life designs including the famous Settle-Carlisle line can be found in Prototype Plans
This site has been set up to provide inspiration for those planning a model railway, whether it’s a simple train set or a complex model railroad with three trains running at once. Most of the plans are based on prototype locations, and are designed to give a feel of the location instead of copying every single detail. The accuracy of the track plans will therefore vary, but with some careful scenic work they have the potential to be modelled and recognised as a specific location.
New in the latest update are two plans based on the modern railway in Scotland, three small plans incorporating both a loop and a branch line terminus, and a tribute to my favoute cafe near Bolton Abbey. See the Layout Plans page for all the details.
All plans on this site have been designed using AnyRail track planning software, available from www.anyrail.com. The files used to make the plans can be found on the download page, meaning you can view the required parts and adjust them for your own requirements.
The plans have also been designed using HO/OO gauge set-track with some sections of flexible track, and are grouped according to the size of board they are designed for. However, the ideas here can be developed further using other types of track, provided that you have the space to accomodate larger radius curves and pointwork. These plans could also be adapted for N-gauge, which may be an area of future expansion.
Please feel free to have a browse around, request a trackplan, or submit any of your own ideas for inclusion on this site. The gallery shows images of layouts built to the plans featured on this site, and the FreeTrackPlans.com Forum means you can share plans or photos of your own. Get involved!
