Layout progress

After bodging together a baseboard...certainly not an example of fine craftsmanship, more how not to do it (many lessons learned...will do better next time!) with approx dimensions of 6' x 1' and messing around with various plans I've settled on a trackplan.

My intention at the start was to build this layout using as many salvaged/unused items as possible to minimise expenditure (hence the baseboard being made entirely of offcuts) and as I already had 3 points and some PECO flexi track, they dictated the trackplan more of less.

The track at the top right will disappear under a bridge and into the fiddle yard. I'm pleased to say that the track has now been laid and tested and that work on ballasting and weathering will start soon!
