@D9020 Nimbus I’ve been looking through my Railway Modellers too, to see if I could find what you were referring to. The nearest I’ve found is Lindale by David Spooner from December 1981. As to why that trackplan is referred to as so, is testament to Roy C Link’s original scheme. It really tapped into a need amongst modellers for something small and interesting to operate. The visuals were what clinched it, I think. Certainly speaking personally. It really did show that there was potential in a small space. As for the name, well the hobby of railway modelling is all about compromise. Roys article and plan was the first to pull it all together under a snappy title and a whole concept. Much like Iain Rice’s “cameo layouts” perhaps.
