As someone just getting started, I do find these really inspirational - I doubt I’ll ever get anywhere near this standard when it comes to trackwork, scenery or weathering, but it does encourage me to press on with layout plans for what I can do. Thank you. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I worked out some time ago that if the layout does not fit, along with all the other "mission-critical exhibition gear", in the Subie Outback (IE requires a trailer or van hire), then it's too big...

Happy Modelling, Aim to Improve, Prof Klyzlr When i retired ,i no longer needed a larger car, so down sized to medium hatchback, neither of the two older exhibition layouts would fit and with the extra cost of van hire, made them a tad expensive to invite for a smallish layout. Any new build's, will be made to fit the new car like Franklin falls. 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
