Noooooo!!! Not you as well. I keep looking at Jinty's layout and getting silly Ideas. Now you're going to start tempting me as well.

I've already consulted Anthony about ripping up KoLW but he didn't seem too keen on the idea. With the imminent release of Heljans Centre panel tractor this could prove all to much.

Seriously though mate I'm really looking forward to this as your last to O Gauge creations were before I joined RMweb.

Cheers

Marcus

Cheers everybody for ALL your positive comments, there is also Heljan Class 25 on its way thanks to Steve Fay who gave me a superb service, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on that and fitting a SWD Sound Chip and frightening the neighbours, hahhaha. :no:  :no: :sungum:  :onthequiet:

Great idea Andy - two layouts on the go, as you say the old mojo should be constantly titivated (if you'd pardon the expression)....and it's good to see you back in O gauge.  Looking forward to developments on both layouts - always entertaining and educational watching your layouts take shape.  Secretly, I think we'd all love an O gauge layout.

Best regards,

Brian.

Great move Andy.

I'm following just to see how you get on with those Parkside kits if nothing else. Doubt there's much RTP 7mm to choose from, so will this thread go down the structure scratch building  route? 

 

Good luck with this. Shaun

Shakes head in disbelief................. :no:

 

There is no hope for you.............. :no:

 

So where are you going to put the 009 layout? :scratchhead:

 

So when will you finish this one? :scratchhead:

 

Mind you I am as bad with a load of part built layouts, at least you finish yours. :imsohappy:

Cheers Shaun, I have 3 Parkside Kits to make up, 2 x 16T Minerals and a Grampus, and love doing them. As for the Buildings, there will just be one Warehouse / Brewery / Dairy with a Loading Dock and Canopy and the Road Bridge, so I'm looking forward to having a go with that, if it FAILS miserably I'll give George T a call.

Thanks Clive, I too shook my head in disbelief.

 

I am getting rid of my Computer Table under Willsbridge's Fiddle Yard to put in some racking, then I can swap them about. If I added 4 inches along the back I could have 0 Narrow Gauge along the back, hahha.

Looking forward to this Andy. The only thing that worries me is that it looks like you've actually planned this one

It had to be planned, but only finally sorted this morning between jobbies on Willsbridge.

I forgot to say, (and will now add to opening Post) that Beale St is the one that runs over the Level Crossing at the left hand end. There used to be a Station to the left of the Crossing but that closed just after the War, although the line was still in use to an MOD Site for many years, this gives me the option to add another board to that end should I wish at some point.

Thanks George and Mick, Extension in or out of the Shed un-likely / IMPOSIBLE, but If I took it up to the Clubroom there would be room for another board.

 

Also if I moved it nearer to the Door there would be room for another 6ft to on the end.

 

So put it OVER Willsbridge's Fiddle Yard and I've got almost 18ft so double its current length. :nono:  :nono: :nono:  :nono:  :nono:   :nono:  :nono: :triniti:

Like you I have been mulling the idea of a 7mm micro layout around the 08

 

My excuse not to go ahead is five other exhibition layouts in 4mm covering Modern Image (1) and Western Region (2) 7mm NG (1)and

 

Dare I start a 7mm std gauge micro layout with a Dapol 08

 

Answers on a postcard

The and is a GN15 layout
