No dilemma, Jam, your invite is for Calshot as is, so wait until after the show (i.e. Bank Holiday Monday, IIRC) before making the decision!

Remember Round Table's motto: "adopt, adapt, improve" and you won't go far wrong!

The plan above looks interesting; potential for a lot going on! Two operators? Laptop control? (Both need to be thought about at a very early stage so that you can get the track sections in the right place!)

Glad you enjoyed Four Marks; good friendly show! Welcome to the world of making an exhibition of yourself (and the layout!)

Looks an interesting plan, Jam, and I like the idea of the NG looping round to the front.

However, I know that with NG, GAWMing (i.e. getting away with murder) is possible, but I wonder if your curves might be a bit tight? Peco NG points have a 12" radius and the minimun recommended for N is 9". However, if you're running 2 axled stock, you can get away with much tighter.

Love to see the reality!

"Why not copy from the prototype?"

Hey, Jam, that's a pretty radical approach!

Sounds an interesting plan and look forward to seeing how it develops!

Great video, Jam. Shame the stock had to run behind the totems on my browser over here!

Agreed, an excellent article; sorry, but found one typo! I think you mean 'Belfast lattice trusS' when talking about the hangar!

IIRC, Railway Modeller like the photos to be of the highest resolution available, with the article in plain text and all on a CD as separate files. They will want a printed copy showing how you would prefer it to be laid out. Just give the editor a ring; he'll be happy to explain what they want!

HMRC reckon that car use equates to about 40p per mile, so if analysis is needed, it ought to be on that basis rather than just fuel.

Just don't take a leaf out of our club; one 'senior' member has been boasting about his ??7 return ticket whereas it's costing others of us at least 3 times that by car, which is our cheaper option. If he'd joined us in the car, we'd have all benefited.

Do any Bullets use this line?

What about narrow gauge?

 

Seriously though, will you put sections in the stabling point etc.....or might you go DCC?????

Get down, Fido.:icon_wave:

Put sections in anyway, then you have the option to go to DCC later!:icon_thumbsup2:

Is 25cm long enough for your standard gauge locos?
