is this still a small layout?


 

Hi!


I?m working on this layout in my bedroom but I'm not sure if it qualifies as a small layout in this group.

Looks to be a great small shunting style layout that you can have fun with.

Works for me!


 

Here is more information about this layout:

it is in Large Scale and since there a very few industrials buildings in this scale and I do not have much room I will use flat prints of industrial fronts and partial sides from the 3D Program DAZ Studio laminated to Gator board. It is possible to use this 3D programm to design these flats to almost any size.

Real model parts can be added to get a more 3 dimensional front of the building. Also there are roofs available. With them added to the flats I can hide the mainline part and the interchange.

The ground will of course be built in a conventional way.

Utz,

At 15 sq. ft or thereabouts, it qualifies as a small layout. It isn't a Arendt microlayout but it is a small layout and a neat looking and operationally fun one at that. I love the KC area. Do you plan for some black and yellow KCT locomotives??
Keep up the good work and have fun!

Joe,

a KCT locomotive would be nice, but I don't think there are any in this 
color scheme for Large Scale. I got a SF-Alco and looked for a place, 
where SF would interchange with an industrial shortline so this 
shortline could have leased the engine. I found the KCT and think, it is 
a good match. I'm not good at painting engines so I do not think I can 
paint the Alco in KTC colors. Maybe I find a custom painter somewhere 
who could do that, though I really like the blue and yellow scheme of 
the S4.
