Hello,

A friend just sent me a link to this brilliant website that has complete trackplans for dozens of European stations and networks. For the SBB and ÖBB there is even a clickable country map for each part of the network and then links to station plans and schematics of routes. Perfect if you want to recreate a particular station you saw on holiday but don't have a track plan of! Dates of plans vary, for some locations you can see how things have changed over time...

Highly recommended - enjoy!

What is the point of the poll though? We can turn on a feature where topics can be evaluated by other members, but we left it off as we felt that this practice is counter productive.

Interesting site.

Who's going to be the first to build this

Sorry I didn't know this! Since this bit of the forum is all about info I just wondered if it was actually useful to other people because sometimes I think that my interests are quite marginal. I also though it was a good excuse to learn how to set a poll...perhaps it will attract extra views because people like voting so much...

I'm going to try Milano Centrale first...

There are others that share your interests, perhaps not the majority, but that should not prevent you from sharing what you find to be of value.

80% of the visitors to this forum are from the UK, but the rest are spread all over the world and have varied model railway interests.

It would be a huge job but awesome once done. It would also cost a fortune.

Hey that looks like my track plan!

I have been thinking of simplifying mine when I get home.

Probably not a bad idea?

I could certainly use the storage space this plan provides!

Not at all - although most of my stock leans towards thing German I have collected quite a few OHE's with advertising logo's (as well as a "Croc") so I certainly have enough locomotives to diversify !

I have seen many fine Z, N & HOm Swiss based layouts but very few in HO. Personally, I enjoy seeing almost anything as long as it runs on rails & enjoy reading your posts.

What a good site- lots of interesting things to plan around. (don't even think it dbc50!)
