A small update

Portable layouts intended for setting up at home and exhibitions need to look presentable, and be easy to store and transport. This should be incorporated into the design stage, and worked on in stages as the layout construction progresses. Here’s a report on the first steps toward this aim. Haven’t really thought in detail about the lighting rig yet, but that’s OK: the basic supports are made. The fascia are in place, but not yet finished off – there is some messy work ahead, and filling, sanding and finishing will wait until after basic scenic surfaces have been added.

Enjoy if you visit!

Gooderstone: yet another S scale GER branch terminus!

I have started constructing a new achievable layout, and have set up a page to record progress, which links to other pages as they appear (which requires me to make the requisite progress!)

The aim is to have a functionally operable layout by the end of 2026, with more scenic details etc to follow thereafter. Good progress is being made, but the reports will lag a little behind, so tune in occasionally, or subscribe to this blog and receive updates to the blog, pointing to a new page being added.

Enjoy if you visit!
