its really cool isnt it? a change of pace we feel for most layouts we've seen in the uk, short and tall tressles. it looks bigger in the photo then it is. if i remember rightly nick#2's layout and my layout will be going along oneside and fill all of it, my layout is 6 foot so the same size as those brown tables, and i think nick's layout is 24 foot long of something like that.
well concidering we've gone from "lets have 2 scenic boards plus fiddle yard" to having 5 total. it may well grow, now what we also have extra storage in a brick outside shed too. indeed the idea of a corner board/boards has been sudgested a few times so who knows! |
