WOW!! Very cool Stawka, I really enjoyed this. It's amazing what they can do with technology these days. Thanks for sharing.

Back in my younger days, I had a couple of layouts. One, an "N" scale layout, was built on a 3x5 table, with three levels inside the table to allow for extended runs. The other, a later build, was an HOn3 layout on a 4x10 table in my garage. Sadly, I have no photos of them. I used to check out "Model Railroader" and "Railroad Model Craftsman" from the public library for ideas, and to goggle over the exquisite layouts featured.

Did you take photos and have lost them?

Or, I find hard to believe, you didn't take any?

Seems a shame either way.

That is excellent. I will show it to Graham in the morning. He will drive crazy because he will want me to buy him one no doubt, or rather make his look like it.

Thanks Imastawka, that reminds me of the one out the back of the Toy Museum at Leura, except it's just one old train that comes out of a tunnel on a rock and goes up,down and around - it's still cool though.

All that technology, and that's what you came away with?

Actually, I think I do have some photos of the construction, I just have to find them......
