So it has been a long while since I posted, family life and a busy job has rather hampered progress. However I decided that I needed to make a layout to run trains and use my building skills, and set to between visitors over Christmas building something. The main layout is still the overall goal but I wanted to make a bit more progress on something smaller. I used a lighter baseboard and restricted myself to 1.2m in length by 30cm width including the fiddle yard. This means I can use it on my office desk. It isn't based on any specific IOW location but rather includes features you might have seen. So far baseboard built, layout decided, traverser built, track bed done and I am just starting on the wiring. Fingers crossed a train might run in the next week. Photo shows the layout before the cork was laid, to show the track layout.
