HO layout 'Clara', 7x3m, 24 trains

This HO Layout is built by a fellow member of the Eindhoven Modeling Club, Peter Koppelman.

Link to the video

His explanation:
Seven years I have been building my layout and I ban all again making major changes.
The layout is in a room of 7 x 2.65 meters and is built against the wall in a u-shape.
The basic shape is a simple one, a "dog bone" with a shadow station at each end and in
the middle a station where a branch line branches off.
There are 24 trains on the layout, up to five can run simultaneously.
The control program is Koploper and the hardware consists of a DR 5000 from Digikeijs and
a booster. The feedback is done by current detection over the 88N cable.
About 150 meters of track have been used and 61 turnouts have been processed.

Oh, yes, very nice layout. Respect! Shows what you can do when you get your finger out, in contrast to me.

Cheers,
Artur
