Another Winter project


Recommended Posts

Seeing you guys have posted some of your indoor layouts, here is my N gauge Christmas layout. It was build more as a decoration than a true model railway.

Stage one was build in October 2010 with only one hand, as I managed to break a bone in my hand.

Sadly work commitments meant for 2011 the layout was operational but unfinsihed

Christmas 2012

I had my son (aged 12) over form the UK who is into trains (Has his own layout in the UK) and work started in ernest to get it ready

We ended up with this

To be honest it didn't look very good for me, but the kids loved it as did some of the grown ups. Then we dimmed the lights and ended up with these scenes

Hope you enjoyed the pictures, further plans include adding people, more trees and some signalling.

I also plan to add some kind of telltale to indicate which way the points are set to prevent derailments
