georgeT Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) After a long rest with a serious lack of mojo (Family matters etc etc) and not really building anything for myself l have returned refreshed to start again building loco/wagon kits for myself, after finally realising that you really cant (well l cant) make anything interesting to operate layout wise in 8' x 2' in 7mm?, so l have come up with a new idea of a shed/diorama style and somewhere just to run my locos up and down (better than nothing), l have got lots of inspiration on other layouts like 'Hobbs Warren' / 'Abercynon Fach' which are small self contained layouts in their own right. l built a lovely two road shed about six or seven years back which ended up being sold to a friend in the end, as many of my projects have ended up (or scrapped) so l managed to get the depot back and the seed was sown, so l started to cut it down in size to make a three road shed, how far this will go who knows well see......Hahahaha Edited August 13, 2019 by georgeT 12 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bigbee Line Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I like the hack to make an interesting shed. I’ve got some pictures that show the long hooks that hold the doors open. An easy to make detailing item. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted August 13, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 13, 2019 Hi George, I will be following your progress. Nice to have you back. I have been following Martin's build. Cheers, Ade. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeT Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Welcome aboard Ade hope you enjoy the ride, just got fed up with trying to make a workable layout with so little space so that's where 72G should be a hit as l can store and run locos about all day, we will see ? PS, looking forward to meeting up at Telford... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
