And so it starts.........
We recently had a holiday in borth were my lovely missus let me and my kids(four boys under 6) travel on the vale of rheidol and talyllyn railways. I was blown away by the specacular little but powerful locos and wondered if anybody had modelled any of them. So after finding this site and a few others ive decided to go the full hog and plan my next layout.
The plan, well after much considerable thought ive decided that whatever i model must be oo gauge or bigger as my eyes and big fingers can prove very restrictive. So for this ive decided to go 0-16.5 using peco flexi track.
So far so good, ive built my track bed consisting of boards and l-brackets. Over 90% of the track has been laid and im now looking into loco kits and scenary.
Heres some pics of the fun and games so far.
Base board for the shed halt fixed into place in my shed
12 month old shed now with hole and board sticking out, missus wasnt impressed :lol:
Looking down the boarding to where the layout will eventually enter the house via yet another hole
Board painted/varnished
track laid
1st train enters the shed
Hope you all like it, many more pics to come as the layout progresses
