Hey there all,

As with so many, getting back into the hobby again, was doing great in ho, but things changed and lo and behold........ no more wife, no more rail road, no more large room..... but hey life goes on.

So here i am in n, battling to get the size right, its a big  step down, normally my visualizations work well... but i am just stuck. I have 8' by6' shelf area in a spare Room, max width about 36".

 ad for the life of me i cant get a plan on the go, love watching trains, great at scratchbuilding and scenery......but to get from shelf to actual motion .......nothing but a huge blank.

Non the less, i love this online mag, awesome articles, and seemingly a great bunch of guys in here.....so heres a great big hello from south africa, and thanks for letting me join up 

Greg

Welcome Greg ...

An Internet search on "model railroad track plans" may provide some ideas for track arrangements?
