Gents….I'm starting construction of my next layout and need some help.
I'm almost finished the baseboards…3 boards each 4ft x 1ft….I'm figuring about 8-8 1/2 feet of scenic area and the rest to sector plate/fiddle yard. As you can see i'll have plenty of room to play with.
I'll probably multi-mode both in locale (NA and UK) and timeframe (grouping to 1960). HO/OO.
What I'm looking for is either a nice, not-overly crowded with track, harbour/port layout…I was thinking something that might be used with and without a car-float.
So I've gone through my collection of magazines and my track planning books including Rices books but haven't seen anything that I'm totally thrilled with, I did see a couple that I might use…but they aren't my first choice.
Any suggestions or help would be gratefully appreciated.
Cheers
Gene
