It's 11.30pm, and I've just come in from an evening's running on the layout in the shed. But it's not the latest I've been running my trains....
About this time last year, I couldn't sleep as it was too hot. Insomnia is unpleasant, so I got up and went down to the shed. Operations started at 4.15am.
Anyone else run their trains during the early hours, or am I just odd? :confused1:

My layout is in the conservatory which is attached to the main bedroom (don't ask ::))
In this hot weather I leave the doors open into the conservatory so if I get too hot at night I just roll out of bed and play trains :D
I knew it wasn't just me Nobby! If you've got N Gauge lights on the layout, and run a "night" session, it's very therapeutic.

The only lights are on the locos at present as I haven't done the full electrics and scenery yet :-[
As for therapy, everyone else will tell you I need some :help: :laugh3:
I haven't done that, but running trains sounds like a good way to spend time when sleep eludes you. I think I'll run trains next time I can't sleep.
You could try counting private owner wagons that might help :claphappy:

Recently I think I have run more trains during the night than I have during the day because of the uncomfortable heat during the night :'(
cheers John.
Hmmm... with computer control and stuff you could probably run your trains without actually leaving bed! :hmmm:
