New house, new beginning

Well we have now moved house, which means the railway is in pieces and has to be put back together. The good news is that I can have a dedicated room, so it will not have to be folded away against the wall, that should help the ballast to stay on the track at least. It is also slightly larger that the room I had it in before so I might be able to incorporate extra track for the trains not currently running.

 Below are a few views of the room, I did lay out a bit of track to see how it was for size.

 Now I have to plan where to start, although I’m told the room has to be painted first, so I will be painting the walls sky blue.

As it's not been out for a while I thought I'd see if the model was still there. Here are a few pictures of it and a link to a short video. Click here for the pictures
Mind you, I think I ought to do some work on the wiring.

Updated views of the model

The picture is an overview of this 6 x 4 layout with some of the trains visible.



The turntable now is in a yard with at least a partial wall around it. A road runs down between this yard and the brewery, which is access for the brewery lorries and to the goods yard.

Below is another view of the model as it is now. Still lots to do with it. Remember you can click on image for larger version and then close that window to return to this page.
