I've only just seen this. Bullhead track given away for free. Nice find. It looks quite good doesn't it? Your layout is a good example of achieving a nice standard by avoiding complexity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately, ive since re laid the main bigger layout with bull head track after being so impresses with it. ( Thank you, i wanted something that gave a little shunting opportunity, but also being compact and simple enough. The layout is wired for dcc, with metal rod and tube point control. Nothing fancy to go wrong so to speak. Edited November 9, 2020 by Thefatcontroller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
