Perfect display layout - Separate loops and minimal sidings so the trains have little chance of crashing, two levels, two trains at once...
I remember one in the hobby shop window when I was a kid. Around the base was g-scale, then net up was an HO loop, then finally an N-scale loop. Unfortunately, they never had a train going on the HO or N scale.

It was designed by an Nscaler, Paul Aegerter from just outside Munich.
He is coming over to Canada to construct it for us.
If you are in the area, drop in and say hello.

Day Two of The Master's Layout build and 28 more photos have been added.
Paul was able to finish the roadbed today and most of the cork and a great deal of the track. He even started the first stage of weathering the track. At the end of the day, Paul was happy with his progress. Yes, he is a happy camper.
Paul's assistant Dustin came in to help out
and Paul even got Will Annand involved today, in between computer repairs.

You are most welcome.
Paul Aegerter is doing a fine job, for most of the day it is just Paul. Tom and Dave came in yesterday afternoon. Dustin comes in after school.
The first three days are up there and already we have 68 photos online.

Another day over, 84 photos now up on the webpage.
Actually Nachoman, we did a test run today with a little Bachmann 4-4-0, it went around the upper level, except where the bridge was under construction.
