Hi <br /> <br />I'm 61and semi retired, and live in Central Africa. I have been building my British outline layout for 3 years! I originally considered n gauge but eventually decided on British 00 as n seemed too small. Progress has been delayed by deciding to go DCC earlier this year <br /> <br />I have the advantage of 2 young grandsons living only 50 yards away. Despite being only 4 and 2 they have already developed an interest. <br /> <br />My layout is not portable at all, but I would hope that in the event of my demise they will have reached an age where they are either in a position to use or assist in dismantling. <br /> <br />Good idea to keep all the boxes for locos,etc, which could make things easier for those left behind who want to dispose of everything. <br /> <br />However I am being positive and hope to have many years of enjoyment from my layout.
