After years of "I'll do it some point" I finally bit the bullet and started building a layout.

Its going to be a slow project as I work full time and spend most of my free time riding freestyle bmx, however as winter sets in it's something to keep me occupied when I'm injured or have some free time.

Loosely 1940's GWR and based on a track plan my Woodwork teacher in school used, which I spent many lunchtimes running my old OO stock on (his little branch line had many visits from a streamlined Coronation!)

The track work is now complete and working for the scenic boards (didn't take a picture before I left for the weekend), however from the pics you can get the idea of how it looks - GOOD GOD Peco code 55 3 way points are a nightmare for newcomers who've never soldered before, all hail Google!!

Incase you're wondering where the name comes from, my Woodwork teacher was called Peter Knight, and as I ripped off his plan - Knightstown

Thanks to The Hobby Goblin in Stoke for all the advice so far
