Cool moduels and great modeling.

Nicely done.  The last image looks great.  Good tones & indirect lighting help make the scene very pleasing to the eye.

Here a short movie I made a few days ago.

 They are beautiful ! How many modules do you have altogether ? 

The video is very creative. I am glad you did it with the sepia tone making look vintage film.

Hello,

at the moment we've got 14 modules with lengths from 0,5m to 1,45m. There are three stations, two of them with passing loops. Five scenery modules, two 90° modules and one returnloop. We're operating with DCC and using Loconet, according to the FREMO guidelines. But instead of 1,30m between the track and the floor we've got 1,10m so that we could operate the modules from behind the background.

From 22nd of April the modules could be seen at the Intermodellbau in Dortmund.

Here is the plan for our modular layout at the Intermodellbau

Wow Marcus, plenty of real estate to run, very nice. That is great. I also belong to a modular club that we run On30 and we also run DCC using the Lenz System. We run point to point and on one end we have a reverse loop and on the other a wye. We usually have around 10- 14 modules but on big shows we have had up to 30 modules put together. And we have kept it point to point. Makes it more interested. The public gets really excited the shunting that we have to do and also how the trains go on the passing siding to let the opposing train pass by. We always get complimentary comments how are different instead of just going around in circles like the rest of them.

Thanks for the info and keeps us posted.

Hello Nick,

thanks for your comment. Only at exhibitions we could combine our modules at such dimension. In my future layout room there are only 4,40m x 2,95m which are roughly 14,4' x 9,6' The modules will be an along the wall layout in U-form. It will consist of my todays modules, additional I need two 90° Modules, two short modules about 1ft long, and then opposit from my Uig station modules, there will be Borve. These could be used as a through station at exhibitions and meetings, but at home it could serve as a terminus with staging tracks.

Well, keep us up to date and enjoy !!!

Here some other pictures of the IoS

Markus, that railway bridge between the island and the mainland must be one of the best kept secrets of the last hundred years.

I see his mother's sent the lone piper outside to practice. Are those Haggis in the field around him?
