It's about time I shared what I've been up to recently. This is my layout project which has been slowly coming along since the beginning of 2020..until recently. With the last lego show before I leave for college almost a month away, I've been cranking away at getting this great project done.
It should be mentioned that a decent number of my builds are hidden off camera, or at least have yet to be photographed and put online. Some make it to different platforms before others, but this is the first bigger reveal of this project and I'm excited to show you what it looks like when it's all done. I've been making so many buildings and models that I can't keep up with sharing them, so what you see in these photos will be shown in greater detail later on.
One of the big things the layout lacks however is a name for the village that it will be based around. The signal box sign says "Wickford", however I don't think this will be the final name. Any suggestions?
Many more photos to come. It's already looking spectacular and i can't wait until it's finished. Enjoy!
One of the jobs that I find very relaxing to do is building scenery and its a tricky thing to make it look right to the real thing yet not over do it and make it appear crowded. I used to hate doing trees but have now found a technique which though fairly spartan on parts does have the right real world 'look' in my opinion.
I have built a wall and fence and behind them is a pavement and road giving access to the future coal yard and bridge, yet to be built, which will span the station throat to give access to the engine shed etc.
Hello all,
Sorry for the long silence, have been bussy with school/ exams and other things in life.
The layout hasn't chanced very much since the last post, I added some minor things but not very much.
Today I built up the layout in the living room to check if the tracks were smooth and if there were any other problems and afther some tests I started packing for the Noppenbahner event this weekend.
There are some small things that I need to improve so thats a nice task for tomorrow.
Enjoy the pictures!
A small event hosted at the NTM (Nederlands Transport Museum)
Our layout consisted of 3 modules, TamĂ s, Ties and my yard. We also had some static display tables. All in all a fun layout at a fun event.
Next time I'll try to charge my trains before the event o,0
Also; check out Ties' film about the event here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtgEQxUw01g

Finniss Vale- Second Valley.
Colonel Light named this place as Finniss Vale after Boyle Finniss who had lived there and at Rapid Bay till the end of January 1837. But later it became known as Second Valley as it was the second valley that Light had landed on after Rapid Bay- the first. The township never progressed much until the arrival of BHP in the 1940s.However, land was taken up in 1840 and the first crops were potatoes and wheat. Because of the rich soils a flour mill was soon established outside the town which is now known as Leonard’s Mill. Two Irish millers John and James Leonard built the mill in 1849 and it operated until 1890. It has been known as “their” mill ever since, despite other uses. Flour from the mill was shipped to Port Adelaide as Second Valley was never an international port. The stone work of the Second Valley breakwater which links to the jetty (1910) dates from 1855. The first pub here was known as the Finniss Vale Hotel in the 1850s. It burnt down in 1928. The Wesleyan Methodists built the first church in the town in 1857. Prominent land developer William Randall (College Park and Burnside) is credited with layout part of Second Valley in the 1850s. He called his “town” Randalsea. He left Second Valley in 1868 and moved to Port Pirie.
A quick picture of my layout so far. I've been building a micropolis module every week so far this year. These new modules are being added to what I already have. This is probably about a quarter of the finished layout
Now that the kids can control themselves a little better, I decided to really ramp up the Christmas layout and give the trains actual places to go in the house. They seem to be enjoying it, especially once I got out the TGV to run alongside the Emerald Night.
I'm still kicking myself for not getting a second TGV so it can look like an actual train, and for not getting extra passenger cars for the Emerald Night. Oh well. Maybe one day they'll bring out some more Creator Expert trains for us to buy.
At last I've a small space to set up as my railway layout. I'm as yet undecided as to be either fully 9V which ive initially gone with or go with the RC method as RC may form part of my loco builds in the future.
Now to start building trackside items and buildings, fun times :-D
A little bit more overview. On the left is UrbanErwin's goods shed, on the right is on of Martijn vd Linde's houses. So yes, only the middle part is actually mine ;)

The switching layout is now pretty much finished. All areas are polished off and it’s a blast to operate. I’ve been quite happy with all the subtle details I’ve been able to model with this layout. It’s very fun to operate and I think really compliments whatever is running at the time!
Fiz esse lay pro novo site da minha Tuuh diva, eu gostei até. Ali no retangulo cinza, é um slide. Comentem :D

The building is based on the train station building in Sanok, (Subcarpathia, Poland). It's based, but it's not an exact model of this one.
Sanok is a city of my childhood so I'm coming back here when I can. The layout is some kind of such specific journey.

Layouts ready for proofing. Keep your eyes peeled for the book by Stephen McLaren and Bryan Formhals this coming Autumn. It's a sneak peek into the working methods and processes of more than 40 photographers as they work things out for exhibtions, books and other projects. Packed with previously unpublished images from the likes of Amy Elkins, Alec Soth, Trent Parke, Susan Meiselas and Paul Trevor just to name a few...

Ver.2 of a railway layout around a brewery's internal railway. I built a mock up in real Lego of how big it would be and it's almost 4 foot in length.
The operation side of things is simple. There are three tracks, First is the track that goes from one end to the other. The train would push empty wagons in, and return with wagons full of barrels.
The second track is this one in the image. It's just a scenic piece where box wagons pretend to be unloaded.
The third is a siding just off to the left of this scene as a place to store wagons in-between use or store models for display and not use.

I’ve managed to get a lot of work done on the layout recently and have gotten many things done.
I’ve managed to finish all the ballast work and added light grey plates around the ties to get more detail.
I have also been slowly adding more trees to the layout and have been able to build up a more wooded area to the left of the road.
Since I started the layout I have been slowly building up some commercial buildings on the right of the road. The exteriors are mostly done except for some roof detail and they are all needing some more interior work.
In front of the buildings I have replaced the awkward road baseplate i h a brick built parking lot, although I used up most of my dark grey bricks, I still think it was worth it.
All in all I’m happy with my progress and am now working on mor finer details for the layout!
This weekend I have been at Skærbæk Fan Weekend with my little 12V railway (3x6 "baseplates"). The 12V layout was a part of the danish Moduverse layout.
My part of the layout contained about 9.000 elements, and took about 100 hours to design and built. It is built on the standard called Moduverse.
Layout A Day Day 24: Scrapbooking for the future. Words to Tell Your Children When They're Older: April 2011. Created in Picasa.
Not exactly as I had imagined it, but I'm limited with Picasa and it's a pain in the behind to line up those sentences!!! I wasn't about to redo everything right now. So, it's done!
