well i can see some common resolutions in here which chime with me

1 - finsh my frst 'simple' layout without spending too much time planning the next
2 - buy less and build / make more
3 - but keeping an eye out for new ideas and try not to be tempted too often

Mine is to actually start!

And mine.

I intend to stop designing and to start the dammed thing.

:hmmm:
I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.

I think this topic could be stickied so we can check back over the year if people stick to their ideas. :hmmm:

I had been looking at another module on a specific idea but have got all my available track out and realized I can do the roundy round I want with the scene I want.
Added bonus is I can fit a Nn3 loop inside.

This will  be my first layout that I can just watch stuff go round since my dismantled japanese tram layout.
Modelling stupid small scale using T gauge track and IDl induction track. Still have  N gauge but not the space( Japanese Trams) Excuse spelling errors please, posting on mobile phone

Last year I build the boards for my layout, gonna be a roundy roundy, loosely based on Basingstoke, with some other elements added.

I want something resembling the Reading branch, the Battledown Flyover and a single line branch. thats the basics.

My resolution is to start laying track and getting the rough idea developed. And to get some Salmon and other engineers type wagons from the NGS.

Good luck folks... Timmo
