Hi All,
Here is my HO layout .......
It measures 13ft long X 2ft wide a switcher set in a modern theme with a car repair shop at one end along with background buildings .... to portray a back railroad not often seen but all the same a busy area, holding every type of stock a transition point.
In the plan here it is 13ft but an extra board at a right angle on the right will give a 16ft run ...... what is to be on the extension board is still in the plannning.
The track is Peco code 83 flexi Peco code 83 turnouts mostly #6 electrofrog with the NCE powercab control.
Roads to the left of centre
Roads to right of centre
Car repair shop base with cutouts in the boards for deeper inspection pits.
Repairshop walls mocked up to see how it looks.
Parkview terrace building front
Parkview terrace rear with plasticard divider floors which will have more divisions to only allow light into certain areas.
Tomasos market front.
Tomaso's market rear again with floor dividers and extra bars added to the windows to give the impression they are open, the window displays i am hoping to fill with something still thinking what though.
Centennial Mills front double length extended using the extra wall Walther include in the kit.
Centennial Mills rear with new plasticard roof.
All the buildings will have LED's fitted in them each on its own switch from the panel.
Depending on space i have another Parkview terrace kit so there may be more housing .......... a scrapyard to the left is planned also.
