Chagford - My first posting

Hi All

 

I have been working on layout today! I model in 2mm finescale.

 

Today I have run my first train on the layout using the non DCC option on the controller, as of yet I don't have a decoder equipped loco yet.

Good news . How about some more pictures I can't see much from the one above.

Hi Lisa.

 

It looks like a nice little layout. Some of the curves on the track look very small though (especially next to the fiddle yard), what are you planning on running around them?

Hi Yes the curves are very tight, 78mm radius to be exact, BUT the prototype only used very short wheelbase locomotives and 10' wagons and two home brew coaches for quarry workers on 12' wagon chassis.

 

In fact the 78mm is larger than the most severe curve on the prototype scaled to 2mm scale! This radius scaled would be 54mm radius!

Hi

 

More photographs will follow. This is the first time I have blogged and I am still learning.
