  1. I am finally getting started on my new layout. The process of laying the track is a wee bit fiddly, putting the little scews in the track joiners annoys me a lot, but I'll find away to get round it. I am hoping I'll get most of the track beside the platforms laid this weekend, but I'll have problem's to make my own scale point's, because of those uni-track points which to me are useless, perhaps I'll have to find an alternative for those big bulky sections of plastic. Oh well, better not go on!, See you later all.
  2. My latest layout plan is to create Glasgow Central in T- gauge. I know it is a big project and I might have 'bitten off more than I can chew', but if I start now I might be finished in five years time!

    Electrification

    In contemporary layout's people don't use overhead wires for electical current anymore, probably because of live wire issues over the layout, making it more risky to change point's manually and dring maintenance. Also, I think, because of the lack of avaliability of catenary masts; there doesn't seem to be much on offer in UK. There is little to no choice, either you chose Dapol or electron probably the only companies to sell in the mainstream market in oo/ho gauge.
  4. It look amazing when it's finished.

    EMU availabilty

    I have been looking for a proper non-kit, ready-to-run EMU, but despite trawling around the web looking at various manufacture's stock I have been unable to find any EMU's that aren't kit's or modified kits. I wonder if there is a place in the market for this kind of EMU?
