Huh.. you used aquarium rock for ballast instead of lego plates.. interesting.

Yours is the kind of table I want to have one day.

[gotoAndLego]

I really like your layout. Usually what I see happening is that layouts will begin with basic city sets and slowly get larger with the modular buildings which means there is a visual disconnect between the two types of buildings. Yours runs a great middle ground where super details bits work well next to simpler bits.

[patje]

Thanks for the replay

Indeed, for the ballast I use gravel

on pictures of lego train boxes lego are also used gravel

unfortunately in blue

for me it is otherwise too expensive to operate in plates

Therefore, this choice

[patje]

diesel depo also has now its own lighting

What kind of lighting do you use? Are you relying on LEGO PowerFunctions lights, or are they LED's you have assembled yourself?

[patje]

They are no LEDs from the power function

the last placed LEDs are

high density LEDs, recovered from christmas lights

fit perfectly into the lego

back a while since I've posted here
time flies

I started to the rear portion
of the layout
there are tracks placed on 14 high

such that there is still free place
to build something under 

shunting track
and river

next target

is to bring up 

the correct height to the signals

more of the build-up:

Oh wow, smells like heavy work but looks very good so far :) Nice idea to bump up the overall height.

[patje]

update

 

Meanwhile all signals have been raised between the tracks
All the white blocks below will no longer be visible later.
The gray blocks will be visible

The next work is:
Make all train tracks brown
(Plates 1x4 and 1x2 reddish brown)
Also some connections of lighting in buildings

 :-o

[Man with a hat]

Very interesting to see the development of your layout.

I am curious to see the next steps.

[pirzyk]

Wow, very nice. I'm always a fan of adding lights and I like the change of color for the street lights.

[patje]

Something else

Meanwhile, 4 old wagons of the Belgian type Eaos will be
Transformed ... they are too wide to be used on the
Layout 9 wide is too much, hapering everywhere .....

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=523267..
They still date from 2013 ....

One has now been transformed into 7 studs

I would like your response
Always be open for improvements
On layout

Nice! I've been following your great layout since I was a child. It always inspired me to make my own. Seeing you redoing the entire thing must be such a good challenge. Keep up the good work 

[Captain Green Hair]

Your layout looks really nice Patrick, keep sharing!

[Feuer Zug]

Now that's one serious layout. Lights galore, signals, real ballast... Keep up the excellent work.

[patje]

Thanks for the replay

Wow, this is amazing. Just looking at the transformation from this page is wonderful. Very interesting & a neat idea to use that gravel. The more I see LED's, the more I want to use them too.
