Hi All,
I found this forum after a friend recomended it
hope to post here and help others to enjoy railroading more ..... bit about me
I model DCC N scale and HO to a lesser extent though love both and have two layouts Morganth N scale intermodal based & Novahill HO a switching layout, they are both in build at the moment and finding time to spend on both is hard but i try so progress can be slow at times fitting in with work and other commitments.
Morganth has code 55 Peco flexitrack and electrofrog turnouts powered by NCE procab .... some items i have already done are in the diagram and the turntable will provide storage onto another board.

The HO switcher is based on this plan .....

After some moving around to suit my needs it has now evolved into this using Peco code 83 flexitrack and electrofrog turnouts #6 mainly powered by NCE powercab, the car repair shop will be at one end of the layout the roads left open ended to hopefully in the future be extended to other boards.
The theme to the layout is a back part of a railroad not many people see often but is a busy place of work, here is the 13ft run already laid with track the final 3ft could extend to the left at a right angle again 2ft wide.

I have been modelling for over 30 years covering most aspects of it including working in my LHS for seven years.
