Hello people!
I'm new to this forum so thought I'd just say hi.
I've been a lover of steam trains ever since childhood and recently I decided to fulfil a dream of my youth and build my own OO gauge layout for the first time.
As a complete novice the experience wasn't without its challenging moments, but I feel pretty happy with the end result and thoroughly enjoyed myself - not to mention learnt lots!
I thought id post a few photos of the layout, as I've never had any opinions from fellow enthusiasts yet.
I was going for a fictional modern-era 'preserved railway' look, as my experience and skills weren't up to the task of replicating a past times real-life location:
Its not fully complete yet, im still messing about with little bits - but I'll post some more shots later if you like these...
Thanks for looking!
