So, time for the plan. It's not 100% to scale, but tomorrow will see me possibly preparing the shoebox for it's "fun".
Any thoughts on what I may possibly be getting myself into?

That's not to say it's a good idea (if that makes sense), just for the purpose and the fact I have a few lengths of N gauge trackwork available to hand. :wink:

Only yesterday i was thinking about a little side project in N gauge
Something like the size of Franks Pen y Bont but in N
I am a bit weary thou whether my eyesight will be good enough.
I think i may well do it just to see if i am capable of producing something a little bit decent in that scale.
So if you do i will hows that for a challenge

So it got me thinking, how about a low relief ice house (these were used to fill box cars carrying produce with ice, pre refrigeration days, ice was shovelled thru a hatch in the roof) or perhaps a logging layout, loads of scope there for scenic work and with the correct crossings you could probably get 3 tracks in.
This is going to sound daft but I just trying to get you to think outside of the box so to speak, challenge yourself with something unfamiliar :wink:

You will be much happier working on an existing layout, something along the lines of Lostwithiel :roll:

i'm am sure your eyes are looking forward to bringing Lostwithiel back to its former glory.
Plus remember i have never tried N gauge i could end up making a total pigs ear of it.

I wonder how much postage would be on an N gauge layout from Cornwall to South Wales :?:

Careful Jeff, have van - can travel! Being the expert you are at wiring you may find me dumping a layout on your doorstep when I next head for Blaenavon :roll:

If they can fit the same amount of track in the same area then you are on :twisted:
