As a side to my Lner layout/ modelling i also have a thing for diesels , now i need somewhere to run many of them and my more eclectic taste . i do have an older layout of mine which uses set track points (yes like Alec Guiness i can feel the groans of modellers ) but it really does run well, especially with my decreasing sight ability.
so id like to improve the layout scenically and to improve the operation value . this has already been done by adding another point to give a run round loop .
but one big question i am asking myself is theme ,
i'd like to give my self a challenge and to try an replicate a preserved line but accurately so with actual stock that's preserved as i cant stand layouts with the completely wrong stock on .
or id like to do something set in the early 70s perhaps with a view towards London , as an excuse to run some red pannier tanks with some spoil wagons ?
i wont show any images yet as its rather untidy having removed hill sides etc .
but please any help would be very welcomed .
