They look extremely light and strong. I wonder if he makes straight ones - about 50x100cms?

at the moment he is not taking on new designs  so he can catch up but can take orders for the base board kits that are on is web site

he has  one 60x120cm

He does 80x25cms - these might be combined into 80x50. Still a bit small for what I would like to do.

Brian Mosby

the baseboard tops are 100cm high

Brian Mosby

I have now on order 7 extra points so I will end up with
a 4 track fiddle yard
2 sidings at the mills & 5 at the loco sheds
plus a run round at the station

That looks really impressive and not at all like the "Mannin Middle" image in my mind from your first post.

From the floor level (or is that sub-floor/ceiling?) view it looks like the Mother Ship has landed!

And it's taking operating/viewing height (discussed elsewhere) too far... :-)

I had my head throw the loft hatch to take the photo

Brian Mosby

made a start laying the track & got as far as the 1st point for the station run round as I have now run out of right hand points till the new ones on order arrive

1st mill & its siding

It's coming together well. Looking forward to more photos of your progress.

What can you tell me about the center cab loco in several of the photos?
