I've spent a couple of evenings making a mock up of the proposed layout. It's really helped me visualise how the finished article might look. Everything seems to fit in O.K, but I've labelled the points with their "hand" and code number in the hope that if anyone spots an obvious cock up they'll let me know!

I think it has a nice flow about it and should have enough operational potential without being over complicated. I like the idea of my liitle Manning Wardle wheezing along the private siding with a couple of wagons while a GWR tank engine simmers in the platform.

Plan view of scenic area, works out at 12 feet 6 inches long

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
