I built
this same track plan in the 1970's with my Dad. This got me started into model railways.
It is a
tremendous first layout whether you are starting out or getting reacquainted with this life long hobby.
The track
plan is OO gauge and can be built from standard Hornby track parts (or PECO set track). It offers main line and branch line
running. There are plenty of sidings to park those locos and rolling stock as you expand your collection.
The layout
gives a wide range of train operating potential and is ideal for digital control. (DCC – see links section for DCC information)
