New logging/mining layout

#1

Post by daviis »

Hi!

After a pause of 6 years in modelling, i decided to start over again.
This time i have in mind a 1400mm x 600mm layout.
On30 gauge, logging or mining scene.
What do you think about it?

The first turnout (the one leading to the logging site) has been built:

That first turnout and attached curve into the logging area is of extremely small radius. Are you sure your locos and rolling stock can make this shape curve?
Sorry I'm late but I couldn't get my flip-flops to work :roll:
