The front fascia is one piece. The binder clips simply hold the Plexiglas to the fascia; the Plexiglas can easily be removed to work on the edge of the layout. The Plexiglas needs to be removed if I...

Taking a break from painting figures (one of my least favorite occupations). As I mentioned some time ago, I designed the fascia to fold down for easy access to electronics. Hinged at the bottom...

Nice video - I enjoyed seeing both trains running side-by-side.



If there wasn't always something to do it wouldn't be much of a hobby. Even when it isn't maintenance, I can always look at the...

I blame tomcook!

Actually, I was referring to the prototype.

The bar and tables are painted and installed on the tourboat. Obviously still to be populated and staffed:

I never knew such a beast existed! Thanks, drosera88!

Thanks for the progression photos,, POMPERAUGRR! It looks great!

My first German N scale layout was 44" x 86", and I, too, raised it to the 10 ft ceiling of my woodshop. This worked well for me.

Dust is always a problem in a woodshop. When the layout was not...

I'm familiar with Madurodam, circa 1958. This is the first I've heard of Efteling. Thanks for both videos, MärCo!

Hmmmm. I have such a figure in my inventory.

Just illuminating a police car.

I have this Polizei car escorting the Inferno Triathlon bike racers. It is by Busch. I picked up the LED headlights, taillights and blue flashers, together with the electronic flashing unit from...

Very interesting, though unfortunate thread! A wealth of information here in caveats, techniques and prototype.

Thanks, Scotian_Huntress! I'm from the generation that describes a futile action as "like herding cats."

Fun with 3D, Pencil!

Depending upon how high the layout is, the computer desk could go under it. Just a thought. I think someone here has done that.

F'rinstance?

I like the "Kilroy Express RR". Ready made logo!

Throwing more layout possibilities into the maelstrom, how about a T, with the top of the T against a wall. Or an H, with one side against a wall....

Very "Andy Warhol"!

Close, but no cigar, Army-Gandydancer. This layout is set in the German speaking Berner Oberland area of Switzerland. But Schnapps, Jägermeister and hearty dark beers are popular.

That looks very good! Far better than the foam version.

Absolutely! You didn't think this was a dinghy and a six-pack outfit, did you? Nothing but the best, and prices to match - except for friends of the captain. Laphroaig. Talisker. Yumm.

The bar and backbar are 3D prints, I think from Modellbahn Union. It comes with 2 shelves of bottles printed separately, and tables & chairs. The individual bottles are strings of hot melt glue. For...

Experimenting with furniture on the upper deck of the tour boat, "Laune aus Eisen" (Whim of Iron), named after my mother. None of the furniture is glued in place, and most is not yet painted. But...
