This afternoon, I've started the inlaid track around where the goods shed is going. Originally I had planned to hack the kit to have a twin/staggered goods shed, but then I realised I'd be shunting into and out of it. Is that allowed? I can't find my rule book, so I can't check... I know I ought to have planned what was going where and all that, but this is the first time I've actually got as far as I have in terms of scenery and a cohesive whole. Anyway, it's an exercise in using what I've got and getting as much for free as I can. Or not, if you count the cost of the articles that came in the cardboard boxes I'm using for my layers.

I've also extended slightly at one end to allow bigger locos onto the layout. After all, why shouldn't I have trains brought in and shunted by a Black 5 or an 8F? Being longer with more pickups, they perform better too! More photos when I've extracted a card from Mrs Bomp who went on a photographic day in Herm yetserday. It's a beautiful place. http://www.herm.com/
