Good Evening Folks! I am later than usual today. Spent most of the day helping my friend Lothar to take down his old layout - not a nice job. We managed to salvage all building, figures, track, switches and switch motors, but the rest will have to be scrapped. Some of the lumber may also find its way into the new layout, which will be started soon. Once we have cleared the basement, there will be a good paint job necessary, before we can install the work benches. The new layout will be in his second son´s room, who is due to move out [:-,] I am still a little undecided about my own plans. I took some time to draft up an O scale layout, again based on John Allen´s timesaver. O scale is gaining market share, as a numbe of new manufacturers have entered into the German market. Lenz (the DCC folks) has a full range of supplies - from locos and cars to track and structures. They have a fairly inexpensive starter set with a little Diesel switcher, some cars, track and their DCC 090 set - very tempting! You know me, I just had to put an idea for a O scale layout on paper: <a href="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Hanstedten-West.jpg"><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Hanstedten-West.jpg" alt=" " border="0" /></a> Jim - I also got a little confused seeing Jeff´s picture of his sister´s house. I thought he had photoshoped a picture of an HO scale house into a real picture, as the house seems to be somehow out of proportion when compared to the truck. Well, Jeff - you got us fooled there [(-D] You folks have a good day!
