Hey all,

Just thought I would start up a new layout thread, and please observe all rules of the forums, and no curses, spam, or inappropriate pictures. Feel free to drop some pics of your layout at the moment, we would love to see them! Thanks, Tanner

Stepney - not sure if you saw my comments about your layout in the old thread - but I think it is absolutely fabulous! I enjoy your attention to detail.
But I wondered why you did not include the water crane at Elsbridge.

A water crane was added after these photos were taken, it's just been a long time since i updated the photos with new ones how the layout looks now, with PECO scenic backgrounds added for detail and realism.

Should have new photos up after the weekend!

Good news - looking forward to seeing more.

thank you.

I will post photos of what stock i currently have that i run on the layout, most of it is Bachmann and Hornby, with some custom and scratch built models. Some videos are already up on my YouTube page of my layout with a few models being given a run.

I always wondered if that was possible considering it works for Thomas and Percy.

Thanks! I also really like your layout! It gives a very, classic Thomas feel, I look forward to episode 4.
