Oldham King Street is a 7mm scale layout, which represents a small fictional terminus station in North West England. The small, compact design gives the station two platform faces and two short sidings, one of which can be used as a stabling siding.
It depicts a possible representation of a small town-centre station which could have been built by the Lancashire and Yorkshire railway in the 1850s, had the line to Oldham been extended into the town centre, rather than terminating at Werneth or Mumps.
 The period set is the early to mid 1980s - BR blue dominates the scene (e.g. Classes 08, 20, 25,31,37,40,45). DMU services include classes 104, 108, 120, 128, 142, 144 and 158. Traffic into the station includes newspaper and parcels as well as passenger services. In addition the station is used as a run-round facility for coal trains delivering to a nearby coal concentration depot. Much of the stock contains lighting and/or exhaust smoke generators. Engineers trains are frequent visitors, with a tamper and 76 ton crane to be seen. Occasionally, more modem stock can be seen, from First North Western and West Yorkshire Metro.
The layout features colour light signaling, as well as working platform and streetlights.
