Taken years to get here but I am really pleased with the result. The trouble with that picture is only a camera can see it that's thanks to a tripod with a long arm.. I did mention to the grandchildren that I was thinking about building another layout and what where there thoughts of me starting again.... Well, I appear to be in deep trouble even suggesting it as they have grown up with and its Granddad's layout so I must not, under any circumstances change it.... So it looks like you lot are stuck with this for a while longer but I might build a micro layout on an Ikea shelf which seems to be all the rage at the moment!!! 10 2 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schooner Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Small layouts are a fantastic way to explore 'the path not taken' with one's main layout, can be a ton of fun to build and to operate...both may appeal to the grandkids as they see a new layout develop. I wonder also if a high(er) level circuit would work above LM - it might be fun to watch all those mainline trains only seen thundering through LM in photos somewhere to stretch their legs for real. The new sightline may also give an interesting new perspective to modelling, if variety in approach would appeal. Regardless, will be following any future projects closely :) 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNP Posted August 10 Author Share Posted August 10 (edited) Regarding a small layout I might go completely out there and build one with no track but a small village with a harbour or go definitely mad and build an industrial layout full of factories and warehouses..... (or both of course?) Storage would be an issue so I would have to rearrange the current railway room so I could slide the layout under LM. See the old brain box has some cogs turning, slowly at the moment but turning nevertheless... First issue would be a name?

We'll hide our disappointment very well! If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Though .... I note @Schooner's suggestion with interest as I have toyed with that idea myself. And a micro might give you chance to try something different, whether 'Snowflake's Wharf' or 'Something Yard'. I've just built a shunting plank/puzzle myself and they can be serious Fun. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ray H Posted August 10 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 10 How about an Inglenook. That might keep the kids occupied and perhaps encourage them to let you replace LM. Could whatever you build be a prelude to its incorporation into a larger layout? 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can get my layout to look anything like as impressive as Little Muddle, then I won't need to replace it. I'll probably get busy with the small portable layouts I've sketched over the years. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
