This is an on going project I'm not sure it'll ever be truly finished always something to tinker with.

that looks amazing mate!

Christ.... bet that took you some time?!

And welcome to the forum

 

[BBdave]

Thanks it has been on going I guess for about 3 years on and off I got married this year so not a lot was done for about 2 years whilst saving, I find scenery very enjoyable and find it quick to do but it's way off finished there are so many details to go in but the basics are there.

Looking good, very impressive & love the work that has been put into the scenery.

The phone is very realistic, is it Tamiya or a Monogram!

I would have thought a man of your experience would recognise a Hornby when he saw one!

If i could find some nice warflat wagons it'd have tanks on it.

Is this HO scale? 1/87 scale...just wondered as my Bates Mansion would look nice sat on the hill lol.

Lovely layout, great work.

It's N gauge 1:144 originally an under bed layout but now it's fitted into a custom unit i still have a lid to make to keep dust off.

OK I thought it was great at HO. At N gauge its bloody awesome!

I always fancied an N layout in a coffee table.

I'm not a train guy but looking at the layout it looks so good I could get tempted

I wasn't really a train person as can probably be spotted by the mixed stock but my main interest was to have a go at scenery, I must admit to enjoy playing trains now though.

I have posted these elsewhere but thought I ought to put them on my layout thread, I used a ratio kit for the coal merchants and a little scratch building. View attachment 241782
