Posted October 25, 20159 yr As requested here is the layout I put together and displayed this weekend at brickworld Fort Wayne https://www.flickr.com/gp/9312385@N02/s99Wbq
October 25, 20159 yr Looks great! I really like how most of the buildings are non-square, and/or positioned at an angle to the baseplates. Sweet rolling stock, too.
October 25, 20159 yr Wow, a really great layout. I´m not able to find the right words... Fantastic buildings and great trains. I would like to see some detailed pictures of your yellow flatbed trailers...they look good. Best regards from Germany René
October 25, 20159 yr Author Thanks guys. I can't take all the credit for the angles section. Ondrew Hardigan built that section. I added more photos and will post a video later today.
October 25, 20159 yr Wow ...amazing layout with many beutiful details! The docks and the main train yard are simply gorgeous! I love the moving platform for the locomotives and the electric structure!
October 26, 20159 yr Great layout. The train transfer table is very nice. Do the tracks lead to the main line?
October 26, 20159 yr Absolutely spectacular. I love the way that it does not look cluttered, yet there are fantastic details wherever you look! The stand-out features for me are the trees and the angled buildings. Thank you for sharing.

October 27, 20159 yr Great layout! Very impressive in that everything is scratch built. Love the transfer table. Is it powered in anyway? I see that everything is 9v so that would be pretty difficult to accomplish. What are the dimensions of the whole set-up? How many people contributed to it? What kind of sting did you use for the powerline? I need some of those to gussy up my layout. Are all your trains 8 wide? Enough questions! Thanks for posting.
October 27, 20159 yr Author The current transfer table isn't powered. The previous version was powered via ir remote. The layout is 5'x24' it's just me setting it up. I can set it up in around 3 hours and took it apart and loaded in my trailer in about hour and 45 minutes The string is something from Walmart. Not sure what size or brand. Yes they are 8 wide.

October 28, 20159 yr Excellent layout, there is a lot going on in a small space. Your shop buildings are fantastic, the river running through town is great, and overall it has a good "to scale" feel. The detailing is top notch.
