I do like your updated version. It looks like it will be a nice layout to run on and is easy to extend should you want to.
What is the software you use to create the plans?

That looks like a nice selection of engines and stock. Always good to have a wish list.

Yeah. thats my wishlist so far.

That yard will be nice to shunt from whatever side you approach. It will be good to revisit that list in 4 years and see how much stock you have accumulated.

Yeah true. Maybe 10 years and we will revist the list!.

Hi folks. i got the track and when i put the loco on the track only one of the wheels where on the track. and the track looks like 32mm gauge not 45mm so im going to sell the track and with the money from the track im going to put it to some money for the track for the line.

I would keep the 45mm track, there is more choice of locos and rolling stock to run than on 32mm.
