Well Jordan came to me and said hey how would my plan look in a 24ft x 2ft space? Theres only one way to find out eh!

This was where we got to last time in a 12ft x 12 ft space. When changing space its important to re-inspect the givens list so we checked in with Jordan.

He wanted the following

• layout fed by two helices for continous running and staging underneath
• Keep the yard area & round house
• Station area for communter trains
• Keep City feel
• Try not to change the switching area on the right hand pennisula

So my first stab at chaging this I kept the yard and rotated the pennisula. the additional module in the middle is where I added the station area with platforms. Jordan approves but we can always make improvements.

Can you spot the changes??? Well yeah lets talk them through, so national biscuit has moved to one of the large warehouses behind the depot. That gives you a larger run around to serve the coal yards and brick yard. I have also added a passing siding to allow trains to avoid the yard and depot area.

Each of these modules are 4ft long and Jordan plans to follow the TOMA aproach building two modules at a time. The first two modules have arrrived and Jordan has shared this picture with me of his modules from CMR products.

Well thats it for today, the postie brought a helix and some other parts today so we can get on with some work on my own layout tomorrow.
