Title: Shawn's Layout thread
Post by: Shawn on April 30, 2012, 09:30:09 PM
Just before I start:
GET OVER THE FACT THAT I MADE A NEW TOPIC!

That aside,  This layout is not a big one like IC82, but will have...

-over 20 locomotives  (and counting)
-DC and DCC
-20 trees
-over 50 trucks (and counting)
-30 coaches
-over 15 buildings
-and more!

Videos will start this fall.

Also before you ask,  this is not what thomas reborn! will be filmed on.  It will be filmed on a bunch temporary layouts.

Yeah, no point in making a thread without pictures.

Sorry it's not too entertaining yet.  But I am not ready to show anything yet!  IC82 has not shown anything yet, but look how much people are looking forward to his layout!  Maybe I will just delete the thread...

Do you have a track plan? You could share that. Otherwise, we'll just wait and see I guess.

It is mainly sodor,  but British, and the odd American interloper will appear😃.  I look forward to it too😜

If you do delete this thread, I started in General Discussion a thread "Show us your layout" just to get a look and a few idea's. Hope you would be interested in posting some pics there also. There is already one Thomas layout posted and it looks great.  Look forward to seeing some progress and good luck in your venture.
