[Tdm]

As regards layouts have you tried this site for some ideas. :-

Also on a personal note (if you don't mind me saying) you need to correct your Location details which currently read "Angelsey Noth wales" when it should be either :-
Angelsey - North Wales (in English) or Ynys Mon - Gogledd Cymru (in Cymraeg).

I used to live in Conwy and regularly visit the Island of Angelsey (Ynys Mon) and I don't think the local residents would take it too kindly if you called it Noth wales!

The Railway Modeller Book of N Gauge Track Plans (layouts 1 - 5) has some good small layout suggestions but be aware dear Cyril Freezer has scaled them down so you may need to amend them slightly.

Give us a clue, era? region? do you want end to end or continuous run?

Adding a small control panel under one section of the layout, big enough to house a socket for a DCC handset and four DPDT switches.

Making car routes...with a little nightmare!... I must remember the driving sense is on the contrary than the rest of us in Europe...so all the things about routes (bus stop, crossing, signals) are on the opposite side..

There's also a 'Magic Roundabout' in Swindon (and is marked as such on the approach signage). It was the original Magic Roundabout (1972) - well, Swindon has got to be famous for something, and it's apt that it's a carbuncle of a road system...

Shudder. Doing my driving lessons in Hemel and this is a regular feature. Not as bad as it looks maybe, but still pretty nerve-wracking!

Worked in Hemel for 15 years (inc the Buncefield Bang) and used the beastie most days. Got used to it.

Worst occasion was encountering a lady driving a 4x4 while drinking her morning tea/coffee and attempting to avoid me going in the opposite direction!

Sadlers Farm roundabout in Essex used to be like that too at the junction of the A13/A130 - they've got rid of it now (not before time!)

Nothing, still waiting to get this place sold and get moved. Track all lifted back in March, got most track salvaged, nearly finished getting ballast removed and then clean track boxed; some buildings boxed up others on a diorama. Getting stock checked and boxed.

Going through the tail end of a house move.

Our 'quick sale' has turned into 4 months of total PITA. Check out your potential buyer with care!

Good luck - hope you get a sale and an easy move soon.
