Westport, I'm watching this with great interest as I'll be hoping to be drawing my own layout within the next few week's, well done on what you have drawn up for yourself so far, the boys on here will I have no doubt will give you some very helpful pieces of advoice when it comes down to drawing up a plan, I haven't got a bully's notion as to what's what in planning a layout, so keep it up, you'll get your plan sorted & the best of luck with it, all I'm hoping for is to get a couple of trains running around some tracks, now what do's that tell you, you have even got to put a plan on here, I cannot even do that !!!
