Taken over the spare room !

[alcashj94]

A few months ago my better half surprised me by saying ‘Why don’t you use the spare room for your trains instead of having bits all over the place ?’
Well I wasn’t going to argue was I !
So I’ve been slowly working away and thought it was time I showed what I’m up to. I have several ‘modules’ built over the years so started by seeing which ones would fit in the space I have, managed to use a few of them so started by making storage cabinets as a base and then continued with new baseboards to fit around them and continue the line around the room which is approx 14 feet by seven but goes round a corner in the middle. I’ve managed to get a loop with a passing track, not room for sidings as I want to have scenic features to break it up and make the layout look larger than it is.
Here’s a selection of pictures which shows how it’s coming on, progress might slow down a bit now I can sit and watch a train go round !

All hail the wisdom of the "other half" and long may it last...

Nice land grab.

And the modules are looking pretty good too, even if some of them are sideways or have taken a detour to Australia.

You have to keep a wary eye on them Ozzies; you never know what they're going to get up down to
Mind you, Doggo seems to keep things in order

Dogs generally have things in order, but cats Always have everything in order. Just ask them. (And I'm a dog person. It's my wife that has four cats. )
