I think out of the three, the last two look a little out of place. I would go for the first one; it seems like it belongs.

Great video, was a pleasure to watch. This layout is fantastic!

Fantastic thread, going to be following this one. Great work

I have decided to start on my layout project. Due to soon new arrival to the family, I have decided to keep it as small and contained as possible. The apparent path of a micro layout, based on the classic inglenook shunting puzzle. The size will be 2.5 feet long, by 16 inches, this will be purely the scenic area. Attached will be a separate fiddle yard. The layout will be made up of a single point. However, two tracks will leave the layout into the fiddle yard, with one track being the five wagon. while the two other sidings being able to hold three wagons. The headshunt would have to be the fiddle yard, with the second point generally within an inglenook being off the scene. However, the fiddle yard will just be a traverse allowing me to easily slide the loco and three wagons to and from each entry track. I generally have no idea what I'm doing but plan to use this thread to ask for help and learn where I possibly went wrong. I hope to update this thread as much as possible, and really look forward to the journey I'm about to take. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Good evening everyone, I registered today. My name is Joseph McCarthy, I have recently moved home, and wish to build a model railway. I'm planning a simple shunting layout which could fit in the back of a Ford Fiesta. I'm not sure how active I'm going to be, due to a new addition to the family any moment now. But when he decides to give me a chance I hope to try and progress. I have always browsed this site and found the standard of layouts fantastic, and the knowledge within the forum priceless. Thanks for taking the time to read this post, and happy modelling. Joe
