Small shunting layout

I have a small shunting layout which I built for one of my sons.  Essentially, it is a run around loop with sidings at each end (see attached photographs) and sits on a 1.9m IKEA Lack floating shelf.

 

Track is 00 code 100 Hornby with Peco points.  Figures and rolling stock are not included, but I'm open to offers.   You would probably need a new backscene as the existing one is a little faded and you'd also need a controller with a couple of banana plugs on the leads.
 

I know this is the 'Free to a good home' topic but perhaps a donation to a charity (Alzheimer's Association or Cancer Research) would be appropriate.

Is this still available?

Sorry Jon.  Only just noticed your post.  I blame the new style forum. :rolleyes:

 

Yes, it is still available.

Thank you Jon, that's very kind.

@teaky, due to other commitments, I probably wouldn't be able to collect for a couple of weeks. If you don't need it gone quickly, I would definitely be interested.

No problem Jon.  PM me once you know your preferred date(s).

How are you getting on with the layout, Del?  Did you get it up and running again?

I've been enjoying it as a bit of a wagon-shuffling 'unwinder'. It's amazing how half-an-hour's shunting helps you relax after work!

New buildings to be built in the New Year for its rebirth as a light railway terminus.

Hi Del

I found this while looking up banana plugs.  How are you getting on now ?

Rob's plan looks to be a very good one with plenty of shunting and it sounds great as a light railway terminus. It looks a bit like that already in the photos I think there's a lot to be said for a layout that can be shunted on the board.
