77philg Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 The layout consists of 3 boards 2x scenic and 1 traverser 12 feet in total . Wired for DCC , but all points are manually operated by push rods from front or back of the layout The various Buildings are Bachmann scene craft .Some cut down to fit the location .We only use the lighting on the layout when operating and don't enhance it with spots. The layout can be used as a fuelling point and traverser at 7 feet or its total length of 12 feet . It has been to Leigh show in its 7ft guise ,and Southport show early this year when it was voted best in show by the public. Its due to appear at stoke this week end . phil 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
