OK here we are new forum...just have to learn how to use it! took me half hour to figure how to create a blog!

 

So the last update on the VBR was that it was progressing slower than a slug! But that has now changed, as i now have found new empoyment which means i now have the nescisary* funding!

 

So, the boards have been made, a plan has been drawn - thanks to the chap who designed it in Germany! - and track and points being aquired!

I am going with the peco 009 mainline track for most of it and the crazy pattern for the engine sheds and coal yard.

 

pictures will be posted in due course.

Hmm, interesting ! As I lived in the 'Vale for the first 33 years of my life, the last 8 just a few miles from the castle, I am interested to know if you are modelling your layout on any part of the castle's plateway ?

 

Obviously as it was only a horse drawn single line system with very little else, it might be a bit tricky, but may be representations of some of the buildings and landscape ?

 

I look forward to seeing your progress in any case.

well the plan is on the other forum - linked - i will re post it on here as and when, but its basically a ficticious layout and operating company, the reason its called that as im also about 10 miles from the castle, and i knew there was a railway of some sort there, so i decided to build on it and turn it into a loco operated railway. hope you like the outcome in any case
