So he wants £450  for this crappy copy with out of the box Bachmann shed and fuel point etc, 

I wonder how much the real Depot Lane is worth . 

All entirely Scratch built ?

 

 

Whilst I would agree that the price is excessive to some degree, I feel you are being overly harsh about the layout itself. It takes a Steve Flint or a Chris Nevard to bring out the best of layout in photos.

 

As for it being a copy, small depot layouts follow a common pattern. Who's to know if the builder has ever seen Depot Lane.

Talk about stealing our idea lol

Track plan isn't exact . But he obviously has no ideas of his own.

Hi,

 

I very much enjoyed seeing Depot Lane today at the Nottingham Spring MRX at Hucknall.

 

Nice to chat and learn about the layouts build history and latest scenic features. 

 

Overall, this layout is an object lesson of how to get a quart into a pint pot! Very nicely done, and love the concrete hard standing, it defines the scene as a proper depot.

 

Cheers
