New British Layout -- Open to Feedback

You might consider looking at some old layouts from the early days of Hornby Dublo and Triang. I think they both used about 13.5" as a smaller radius and around 17.5 for larger.
I have books of plans that might work -- Peco's plans for smaller layouts have a lot around this size. I'll look a few out and scan them. Or you can borrow them from the library when you return the S&D book. Are you coming to any Platelayers meetings?
The new McNally Robinson bookstore in Toronto has an unmatchable collection of British railway and model railway magazines.

All of this sounds great, David. The Dublo and Triang plans sound good. What's this about the new McNally Robinson bookstore? Please let me know where it is, etc., as that sounds great! Big Grin I hadn't heard of it as I thought Chapters/Indigo pretty much put smaller bookstores out of business. Meanwhile, I'll dig up the S&D book and get it ready to return.

BTW, we're planning to visit England in June/July. A trip to Devon is in the works and one big highlight will be visiting the West Somerset Railway!

Cheers, Rob
