walkingthedog Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 A few pictures of my new 0 gauge layout. /media/tinymce_upload/77371cd71222ca2c19562b0126faf4b1.JPG/media/tinymce_upload/73e8f1b0e4c1ecbffd2ee3cf3ab982cc.JPG/media/tinymce_upload/6d58c32b19fd93792273e97f0c6a692a.JPG/media/tinymce_upload/b244c2d7f5910693b61a420aea4a5c6d.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37lover Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 WTD,I recall the history of changing from OO to O; are you pleased with the decision? I guess you have a fair bit more of O gauge stock not shown in the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDS Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Looks great WTD.Thanks for sharing and I am pleased that you are happy with your decision to change scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Much easier to handle but a bit destructive for the wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Looking good WTD. Nice collection already. When's the addition of Class 08's or 33's starting ... or has it? Then the odd 50 - got to if you can ... Same thing, just more wallet bashingly painful ... at times!! Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Got an 08. Can't get anything much bigger, not enough room and 2nd rad curves. Do fancy a CL20 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96RAF Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I think the standard is even better than the old layout, which in itself was way above anything I could hope to reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buz Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Hi WTDYes destructive on the wallet due to per unit cost, but overall cost works out about the same per layout.With a LT locomotive at least you can go undergtound if need be 😆 sure I have seen a picture of a steam freight coming out of the tube tunnels They did once run freight trains through there and with steam.Looks good.regards John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 Thank you Buz and thank you Rob. I reckon you are being very modest Rob, I'm sure your new layout will be brilluant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I lack the imagination and artistic eye to reproduce the necessary lifelike effects Brian, so mine will be more ‘utility’ should we say.My artistic gene was obviously dumped in favour of the engineering option.

walkingthedog Posted October 1, 2020 Author Share Posted October 1, 2020 I'm far from artistic, definitely more engineer, I just look upon railway modelling as mini engineering 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
