Well detailed layout with tubular rail.
Posted by plerickb on Sunday, January 6, 2013 2:53 PM

Hello CTT Forum.

 

I have seen in this forum many photo's of a well detailed layout with tubular rail. Forum user name is: Frank53. I would like to learn more and see more photo's. Has this layout been in a magazine? Where can I learn more about the layout.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Rick.

This is a bit awkward, I know a few folks named Roger, but I don't recognize your screen name.

Wow,

 

I really like the mix of detailed scenes and tubular rail. The neon really pops. Did you "weather" the tubular rail? If yes would you share your "secret"?

 

Many Thanks.

Frank,

Your layout is one of my favorites. I've said it many times before, I would never guess that your room and mine are the same size.
