Old Layout

Information on my first bigger layout — one that was built between in the early 2000s and dismantled in 2010 in preparation of selling our house — can be found in this section. The different chapters are:

  • First principles (scale, epoch, analogue or digital, …)
  • The initial idea for a layout
  • The “winning” layout. And some thoughts about the names of the stations
  • The build of the frame
  • Laying of the tracks (with pictures)
  • Erecting semaphores
  • Analogue layouts need a lot of cables. And that can be a mess… (with pictures)

And then, the final step, landscaping. With many pictures.
