Have Layout and Train Ticket can Travel

Hi All

 

Having no car it is an important consideration that the layout should be convenient to transport by public transport. The packing system consist of two components, these are a plastic box, to keep it dry and a bag with a strap that goes over the shoulder to make the carrying easier.

In doing the measurements to check the maximum height for the backscene, which is 55mm, I decided to redesign the positioning of the overcentre catches to fix the cassette board to the main board. This change simply makes the layout packing easier.

Neat Solution. I used to take a briefcase with a work tray and make models on the train. With the addition of a battery or just a controller now they have power sockets on trains you could run your layout. Doing modelling on the train fascinates people when they realise its not toys but models.

Hi

I thought I was the only one who has worked on a layout whilst travelling on a train, I was obviously wrong!
