Have you ever managed to actually complete a layout in any gauge ?? You were on RM Web years ago, doing exactly the same scenario then !!

How many of us do actually finish a layout? I've only just about not quite nearly finished my first one.

I reckon you need a bigger shed to make O gauge work for you, but that's a bigger undertaking.

I can understand the frustration Larry is having with 4mm scale, having built up a small collection of 7mm locos and stock.

For me there is something about the mass of 7mm locos (especially with my whitemetal locos) that the 4mm models cannot replicate

I think 7mm modelers are better off with track than their 4mm counterparts. RTR is not perfect, but so much better looking. But it depends what part of the hobby interests you.

Good morning Larry,

Having acquired the Rapido 16xx from you, subject to posting, I was wondering if you would be also interested in selling some of the layout structures please?

In particular, the signal box, water tank and goods shed?

No problem if not.

Cheers, Nigel.

This really is not a conversation for the forum. Please use a PM.

Thanks

Baseboard widened after laying 0 gauge track on top of the 4mm layout to see how much space was needed for everything. The current job is adequate and far less expensive than constructing a whole new baseboard.....
