Nice photo's mate, tells the building story well. Is this going to be the finished size or is there an expansion plan tucked away?
Troy, Are you up in Blackpool anytime this year? I have got 80' foot down now and should have the rest down this month, so if you're on a tram trip drop me an e-mail.
Cheers,
Kim

That's looking really nice Jeff,well done.
The tunnels are effective and have given me some good ideas.In two weeks my layout is been lifted in my garden,expanded and moved to is final (I hope ) destination.I will at last after many years get my 130 foot mainline with nice wide curves at each end of the garden.
It's a liitle bit of give and take in my household.My wife wanted a porch on the front of the house and I wanted the entire outside of the garden.Well,she now has her porch
and she knows the expansion to the railway is imminent[:D]
