THREAD NOW CLOSED   *** This thread is about two different layouts. From Page 1 to Page 160, this thread is about a garage-size layout. From Page 160 onwards it is about a much smaller layout, the 0 gauge equivalent of the classic 00 6ft x 4ft "train set" layouts of the 1950s and 1960s ***   I'm about to start integrating my portable layout into my fixed layout, and the threads devoted to each have become rather tangled, so I've decided to terminate them, and start afresh.
