    When i retired ,i no longer needed a larger car, so down sized to medium hatchback, neither of the two older exhibition layouts would fit and with the extra cost of van hire, made them a tad expensive to invite for a smallish layout. Any new build's, will be made to fit the new car like Franklin falls.

    A more compacted layout that fits in the car, EOTS needed van hire my main decision to scrap it.
  16. long island jack
    No, was sober when the decision was made, but had sleepless nights since the dismantling started
