    planning first layout

    after messing with RTS for hours this is what I have... im sure there will be a few versions before Im finally done but for now not sure what else I can improve on. grey area on the left will be elevated, along with the track climbing on top. now that I think about it, will kinda suck...

    planning first layout

    the w/d are stacked so not able to put anything over it. so the size listed is the remaining space along that wall. bringing the table wider would put me out in the way of the back door, but wouldnt matter since it would be too far for me to reach anyway, so was thinking, if I found or made a...

    planning first layout

    sooo much to learn lol, different scale gauges, different track sizes, different ways to lay them down.... never thought of having an extension that would be moveable to go under the main. the size of it now brings it wall to wall (the room is longer than 100" but the washer/dryer are also...

    What's your Best custom locomotive?

    you guys have tons of patience... i could never sit and try to replicate a real engine, i'd loose my mind. im still new tho so just setting it up is challenge right now. im guessing after a while you start getting into the nitty gritty and peronalizing everything on your table

    Another Newbie

    was thinking N because of size. I have a decent sized room, however the washing machine is there, and double doors to get to the backyard which I know the others wouldnt like me blocking, permanently anyway. picking a layout seems to be the hardest choice, then followed by what era I'd like it...

I was thinking about maybe just having a little track setup for if I ever wanted to just see them in...
