    Introduction

    By apj64,

    This section briefly describes the layout and our goals each area will be described in its own sections eventually
     
    This is a large layout under construction in 'N Gauge' in our loft the layout is approximatley 11' X 10' and being built on 3 levels.
    The Layout is being constructed by Myself (Andy) and my son Cieran (10)
     
    Market Sianborough is one of 4 Stations proposed on our Layout and is a temporary name until we get the terminus constructed.
     
    Control
    Control is by DCC using a digitrax unit
    The layout will semi computer controlled in that most of the points are switched from a computer panel and eventually some trains will be automatic. It is not our aim to have a fully automatic layout as this will take the enjoyment away from controlling the trains.
     
    To date we have constructed the lower level and lower fiddle yard trackwork (now relegated to a staging area only)
    The middle level is 90% completed trackwise and forms a twin continious loop with section of 4 track working.
    We have this weekendjust completed a new fiddle yard which cuts across the middle of the middle level, This Fiddle yard is of the traverser type and gives much easier access than the original one which is now partially buried under one of the Stations
