Is your layout based on a prototype or is it a freelance one? Maybe a prototype with a bit of modellers licence perhaps?
Barchester is freelance through and through, in it's scenery, buildings and layout.

Freelance, for sure, for me. It encourages me to be more creative, I think.

freelance for me too, not a good enough modeller for prototype :roll:  :roll:  :roll:

I'm freelance too, although like my signature line says, the layout is based on what my area could have turned out like "If".
Lots of scope there, especially when I want to run a loco that never got this far West,

Freelance for mine too Bob, On the left side of my layout I will try and somewhat prototype my home town city shops, but the rest is all up to my imagination.

Freelance for me too Bob.

Freelance, after all, it's my railroad.

its my layout so if i like it i will make it. and if my son wants me to put his favourite teddys in my mineral wagons then i am happy with that as well.

I like to model actual prototypical buildings as you probably know, but the layout is basically freelance with a fair bit of modellers licence thown in.

How's that for sitting on the fence?  :roll:

Now thats what i would call a what shall we say, crafty answer i think. Al though as i always say, its your model if your happy do what you want, even run diffo gauge if you want.
Phill

My layout is totally freelance.

Bob(K)

Freelance for me aswell

Have used a particular area and station for inspiration. Track plan is Exeter St Davids (based on real one) with incline to a different Exeter Central. Rolling stock is of 1955 period. Thereater so much modellers licence that its almost freelance. Have therefore voted modellers licence - an awful lot of it. :!:  :!:  :!:  :!:
