Interesting! Is it really the 'largest collection in Europe'?

46°41'48.44" n 1°56'37.99" w

Google earth overview

It would certainly be a very pretty exhibition layout. A couple of platform faces, a semi disused industrial yard behind, road crossing alongside the sea, and amazingly rusty rails on very very worn ancient looking sleepers That and only the odd regional multiple unit visiting

Snapped these last summer

Cheers

Great news!

I only have older jouef bits at the moment. Is the new stuff really that good?

Impressively high prices alright!

Was brilliantly schlocky b movie awfulness

Bloody hell! ( heads off to the attic for a rummage)!

Cheers for the links lads! All I need - ANOTHER outline to start collecting :)

Beautifully Evocative!

God that was brilliant :)God that was brilliant

Peco electrofrog all the way Whatever about 75 v's 100, electrofrog for -everything- is the way to go, with full independent powering of all points and each track section. At least you've some hope then of stress free running even in a few years

Code 75 is certainly much finer. Apart from the rail height, the points and flex track in general are more flexible and take shaping better (as the rail is less substantial). Trade offs include the fact you need to replace or re-wheel / bogie any older stock and that the tolerances are generally tighter, so its easier for stuff to derail. On the pro side, its a lot more prototypical (and less trainset) looking, its easier to lay and curve. On balance tho, if you've already a lot of 100, I'd stick with it. You can also get peco widgets to let you transition from 75 to 100. So you could maybe buy 75 concrete track for the mainline and use the code 100 in the sidings or yards?

Cheers 201! I've a few older mehano TGV's and I'm partial to some of the Atlantic stock

Very nice! Recommend any good stockists?

=D

Great photos - love the midland pullman and 082 on Ballasters looks excellent!
