Ahh, whats HU5 ?????? Some secret pommy code :) . A post code perhaps .
You got it. HU5 is a post code district for a large chunk of west Hull.
I half expected an answer of a secret underground layout storage and modelling bunker somewhere north of the Humber, but farther south than Scarborough!

Stunning layout, been following along with this thread since the Covid era when things had just started. Amazing detail and a credit to all involved.

Just be careful Googling HU9...
Apart from a damning Tripadvisor review of the HU9 club, why?

The club does appear to have some “features” of The Empress and Stairways which were regular Friday night venues some 45 years ago.

(obviously, I had to look…)

Although it was our intention that they layout will make regular appearances at shows starting from next year (its first show of 2026 will be in the delightful seaside town of Immingham!;))

However we have accepted the kind invite to support a local one day small charity fundraising show on 8th November this year in Hutton Cranswick near Driffield in East Yorkshire,


The show is, I kid you not held in a car showroom!:D

So if you are local and fancy seeing the layout come and see us and support the charity the show is held in aid of.
