Maurice Have you thought about Alan Wright's Tiddlywink Computer? He invented Inglenook Sidings and this is probably the simplest system for a small layout. Email me if you want a copy Jack

You may want to investigate a program called (I think) "Wagonflow" - I know there's a detailed website about it but don't have the URL to hand. I think there's a link at www.railwaymodelling.co.uk if

Hi, I'm Del from Brighton, England, soon to be in Co.Leitrim, Ireland. I have been interested in small layouts for a long time as we have never had a spare room or basement to fit a large layout. I'm

I have been investigating car card systems for my small layout. It is five and a half by seven feet in N-scale. I haven't really worried about the problems you point out because the layout is going to
