Re: A 16mm layout...in a flat?

Proportionally, I think your station plan can be made to work, although you may need to place any fixtures/people centrally on the platform. Also, make sure that your platform surface is no higher than the top of the rails - it then won't foul stock and locos running through. If I had space indoors...

Re: A 16mm layout...in a flat?

That looks pretty exciting, I look forward to progress, particularly if you can add scenery - I love the look of the bridge and stream... I'm definitely going to try make up for size with appearance! It'll be interesting to see how 16mm scenery compares to the 00 stuff I'm most familiar with. I don...

A 16mm layout...in a flat?

Hi all, as mentioned in my introduction post, I'm hankering after a layout of my own, but sadly I'm rather space limited by living in a flat.
