    Having had a short break from modelling (writing my book) I took a fresh look at my track plan (#129) so .... I've decided to have a separate passenger line to the station without any points to cross as this will enable me to run my various Tri-ang locos without modifications. I've justified this by calling it a preserved line on those days. I can also run both goods and passenger tracks separately from my Gaugemaster controller and may even fit catenary for my EM2 Electrra and steeple cap (rule 1 applies). I realise it wouldn't work prototypically but it does give me plenty of pla ... run value.

    Nice addition to the plank Ian. Good value adding the extra line to run your HTL's (Heritage Triang Locomotives) on. :thumbs:

    Cheers, Gary.
