Focus was drawn on the construction and development of a Loco shed area for the fleet. Although we have a large collection of Traction we know that we can't have all of them on the layout all at once. We have dabbled with layouts in the past with assistance and mentoring for a old friend of ours Mike Chambers or "Big Mike" as he is known, and one thing we both have learned from our Master is that you don't want to fill every inch of space with track, but you don't want to restrict the "Play value" of the layout. We agreed not to run to a timetable but we try to replicate the real railway in operation as opposed to timekeeping, so gaps between trains are kept to a minimum this keeps the interest going anything goes here......
