RMweb Gold mudmagnet Posted August 22, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 22, 2010 Pete Having had another look through your thread, it's a shame that I won't be able to see both layouts in the flesh - unfortunately just a bit too far from home. Perhaps you will be a bit closer in the future. Do you have any more shows lined up? Richard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deev Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Hi Pete, Two great layouts. I love what you've managed to achieve in such a small space. Could you let me have dimensions for your layouts? I'd like to try and build something similar so that I can continue modelling over the winter (my garage is too cold!). Thanks Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 Dave Both layouts and all of the boards for the layouts are 1ft x 4ft x 8inch with 3inch under the base for wiring and point motor etc. I hope this Helps? Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
