I've always been fascinated by Brunel's Broad Gauge, partly because of the sheer size of it I think! With a possible move up into the loft next year I am hoping to incorporate a loop of mixed gauged track on the new layout.
Does anybody here have experience of broad gauge modelling in 4mm scale? Any hints and tips to pass on?
I think that custom track is the only option, which means improving my soldering skills! I have also been looking at suitable kits from IKB Models and the Broad Gauge Society.
The plan would be to have two main loops with the outer one being dual gauge. This would make it easier to lay a dual gauge section of track into the fiddle yard that I intend to put underneath the main layout.

Dan
