My all time favourite N layout. Is it in running condition? Hardly looks like enough space behind the scenic bit for the fiddle yards.

I did have the privilege of about half an hour "hands on" at the Romsey show some years back.

It was bought "lock, stock & barrel " and seems to be running well. There are a few minor glitches ( which appeared after the Basingstoke installation team had left) but they are confident they will sort them out.

:hellosign: Basingstoke layout is running well, visited while on holiday on the IOM (got home yesterday). IMO the exhibition is worth visiting just to see this layout
