<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Upnick,
Thanks for the support. I just discovered that I got the idea off the MR website and not a book. I actually subscribed to MR for the benefits you are meant to get with it. But there is only a track plan of the West Marylands with little other information.
The problem I have is that I am restricted to a rectangle table of 2.4m x 1.8m and trying to fit a track plan on it.
I wanted a layout to fit that dimesion. I didnt want Yards or buildings. Purely mountains, rivers and forrests and tunnels.
Its a bit like how longs a shoelace. Limited information I know, but there hasnt been somethiing out there that I've fallen in love with. Closest is Western Marylands with some modifications.
Anyone with ideas to fit the above description would be greatly appreciated!
P.S I've noticed that alot of users in this forum are from the UK and you have different plans to that of the Americans - by the way, Im an Aussie!

Hi Stets.

Also if its in Ho you want to do it have you thought about N scale .... get more in a smaller space but still as interesting, good for you subscribing to MR a buddy in the states gets his mag a month before me and is waiting or the April issue already
a benefit of subscription.
For scenery the insulating foam i used on Morganth is a good way to build up rocks quickly and a lot more realistc than Plastercloth.
