Work in progress - now the pain of planning

[quote=""Rob Pulham"":ybbtjcga] I now have two foot wide by eleven foot to play with. I am thinking in terms of an MPD - I don't suppose anyone can point me at a track plan for Leeds or Wakefield sheds can they?
Sounds interesting Rob, which sheds do have in mind ?...........the 'GNR Engine Shed ' books published by 'Book Law/Railbus have track plans if it's any help, vol 3 covers Leeds & Ardsley but not Wakefield, I picked a copy up in Bridlington in the book clearance shop for a mate last week.

Thanks for this Phill, I just googled it and found a copy of vol 3 for ?7.97 + ?2.75 postage. It says it covers Lancashire and Yorkshire - Obviously Wakefield isn't in Yorkshire then :twisted:
To answer your question I haven't a definate shed in mind, just something that would justify the loco's I have in stock to build and possible future builds which are A3, LMS 8F, LNER W1, LNER J52, LMS Beames 4-8-4 ( I know that these ran mainly in South Wales but it could have been on loan following a visit to the shop - he says stretching it as far as it will go
, WD both wheel bases ultimately and what ever my good lady takes a shine to in the mean time. She has asked me not to buy any more loco kits just to give a her a selection to choose from and she will buy them.
Thanks for the reminder of the old maps link Cynric, I had forgotten it already despite having had a look when Neil posted it.
