Almost a year since my last post and probably closer to two since any actual layout work was done I think I'm back into the project.

I even took down part of the baseboards with the intention of never going back and selling all my trains. I sold an awful lot but at the last my wife suggested I keep some or I'll only regret it. I did keep some and left some of the tables up and I am seriously considering starting again.

I've re-worked the layout completely. I was never too sure that the station at the top would look right and was probably a bit too short. The freight area may not have worked either as there just wasn't enough room to put cranes and what not.

I feel much happier about this design. It seems to work well. The only downer is that there isn't a length of track where the trains could be seen just thundering through the countryside.



Comments welcome - not sure how many folk look in these.

How likely is this to happen? - I'll be making a start end of September if not before.

How likely am I to finish this one - who knows. By summer of next year I'll either be a long way in or taking it all up again. We shall see.
