    twenty n i n e t e e n....................

    I've a lot of faith in Rapido, they make some lovely lovely models, and this promises to be an exquisite model. Apparently it is more detailed than the OO version. So I really need cars that will do them justice in teh detail league.

    What have I done?!:facepalm:

    ooops, looks like I have the beginnings of a track plan....


    I'm thinking Cement elevator at the bottom (front) left which will also act as a view blocker for "enter/exit stage left", team track centre rear and a (very) small LPG or oil distributor bottom right.

    Okay I'm thinking two or three cement hoppers in the cement siding, probably only one tanker in the LPG/Oil siding and two 50ft boxcars in the team track, although, I'm now thinking a low relief single story warehouse now, with plenty lush green trees either side to run along the front of the backscene.

    So that's a six car train hauled in from the local yard, arranged Cement, cement, cement, LPG, Box, Box.

    and now the scene begins to mature ....... Try Walthers Cornerstone for your warehouse as they do loads of american outline stuff. I'm sure they cater for N Gauge.

    They do indeed. Medusa Cement I think will be employed. I fancy maybe scratch building a warehouse. Will look for some kind of oil/LPG distributor.
