Hello,
thanks for adding me as a new member (and as a newbie too
) of this great community.
Let me introduce you to the Very Low Budget Railway. I watched this video several times and I decided to build a layout like the Ten A Penny:

I'm very happy with the result. And now it's time for the first running session I guess.

That's all for this month folks ! Because I spent my entire october model railway budget.
Thanks for watching my thread.
Oops ! I forgot to write the dimensions: 0.92m x 1.27m

Thanks Gentlemen.
The layout needs a shed (or two), a station, a few houses and some greenery. I stiil have a lot of work to do.

When I'll be a little bit richer than today (hope so !) I'll buy one Peco left handed point (ST-241). I'll build a new siding.

Today, I removed one point and one siding. This siding was a little bit too short for what I really need.
