Coming on nicely now Steven,
You are lucky enough to be able to have a whole room to set up the layout in....all you want now is a small fridge for some beers to chug down whilst you are operating the trains....that'd be the first thing I'd do !!!

Regards......Mark

Well not much has happened to the layout over the last few weeks and i have been thinking about making the station more better,but to do that the station is now on the upper level and i have some hidden siding under the station so here's the updated track plans.
The first one is the lower level plan and the second one is the upper plan.

Just added up the prices for the track needed for the changes and it comes to £108.35 as i have some of the track allready which helps alot in the costs,in october all the point motors will be bought for the layout as will all the other electrics needed.

On another forum i am a member of and a member was abit confused i think of how my layout was so here is another way to show how it will be.Also the colours are to show whats what on the layout so the red is upper level,blue is lower level,and yellow is the inclines to and from the upper level.

This one is the lower level part of the layout with the inclines to and from the upper level

And this part sits above the hidden sidings

Me and my parents have been talking about relocating my layout so they can have the room back as a spare room but the loft is out as it ain't big enough to fit it in,so my parents are letting me have a metal garage to house my layout in the back garden and the garage will measure 18ftx10ft.
So hopefully before christmas time my layout should be moved to the new premises but before this all happens my dad has to get the VW beatle restored to a rolling chassis,then it can be moved to the garage down the road from are house and the garage to house my layout can be bought and then fitted out ready for it to be moved in.

Yep can't wait but it will be afew months before anything happens but my layout will stay up in the bedroom so i can still work on it, but as soon as the garage is bought and built the layout will be dismantled so my mum can move the wardrobe into the room aswell as some other things and when the garage is fitted out the layout will be moved in.
