Thanks Ryan, there's loads to do on this one, including cutting away from between the Tracks and along some of the front to put them on Embankments.

 

I hope you enjoy this one as well.

Thanks Al, The NEW SAW has certainly helped, and also learning how to use a tape measure is a bonus.

 

A tape measure?

 

The things you learn on RMweb.  You are definitely hi-tech Mr P.

Andy certainly puts me to shame, I started Warren Branch over twelve months ago and I’ve only laid half the track :blush:

 

By the time I’ve done Warren, Andy will be on his tenth layout

 

The main thing that is impressive is despite the speed of the builds the quality isn’t compromised :good:

 

No pressure ;)

Thanks Guys, all you comments are welcome and appreciated.

 

Toda I've done the left hand F/Yard board, and then test laid some Tracks to see what would work, I can get 6 plus the Programming Track on the left end, and 7 Tracks to the right.

New Mills??

 

That's not far from here, I used to work there sometimes. :D

 

Al.

Yeah, A great location with 3, YES T H R E E, Railway Lines passing through it, but this is a mere coincidence, as MY New Mills is NOT THAT New Mills, but a different New Mills.:good:

Some lovely curves there, Andy!

Oi!

The track, I mean!

Looking forward to seeing how this develops, good on yer, mate.

John.

Cheers John, Yes I don't do strait Track very well, also I feel that the curve makes it look longer and more natural.

Well, you've killed two birds with one stone there, mate.

1. No dead straight track.

2. No track parallel with the baseboard edge.

 

A winning combination!

And, that's before we get to LL blue, railfreight grey etc, etc!

Brilliant stuff.

Cheers,

I had better join now - as I suspect Andy has already drafted the sale ad.
