Merely thinking of just having a single track on some mdf with a link wire from the track, im no expert modeller so i want to keep it simple. James hilton on youtube has one on a layout ill be copying it.

My apologies i wasnt clear enough, no railway shed on the layout, just a locomotive refuelling point, like the one at drogheda station just smaller:)

Hello everyone, Quick update on the layout plans. Ive decided to do a small yard layout with a traverser at one end a removable cassette at the other. The scenic are is 4ft by 18 inches, total layout length is 6ft 3inches, minus the cassette. Its going to represent Moathill level crossing in Navan, County Meath, circa 1985-2003 its going to include a through line to kingscourt with passing loop and two sidings for loco refuelling and a permanent way yard. The bridge over Tara junction is my scenic break to the traverser. I have locos and stock ordered, then the layout building will commence.

Thats the current roster:)

Id like to be able to do steam/diesel era as well as the 90s/00s as i grew up with the railway around then:)

Which part of limerick were you looking at? I had considered it since its one of the smaller Irish rail depots i grew up around the navan branch so i have a special place in my heart for the tara mines/gypsum traffic

I have british railways locos, irish locos and North eastern Railway locos, would like to keep it irish but isnt a necessity.

I have various locomotives from different eras, so i would like it to be a "timeless" layout if you get me, where all eras would fit. Stock is mainly freight and short bogie/6 wheel coaches

Hey everyone, looking for some help with what will be my first "proper" layout. Been struggling for a while to come up with an idea for a layout. I have a space of 6ft by 1.5-2ft including fiddle yard. Id like to be able to display various stock while also having some operational interest. Any help would be greatly appreciated:) cheers
