Hey everyone,
Just got to let you all know that I've spent the last few days going through this disscussion site and it has really inspired me to get into my layout. A few years ago whilst working in Saudi Arabia I bought a heap of AFX sets and when I left (2 years ago) I finally got started on the layout. It's an L-shape the longer side 8m x 1.2m the other another 2.5m x 2.5m approx. When it was up and running it had 4 lanes and each lane was 16m long. We had it going for about 2 months trying to get it right. I then took it apart with the intention of making it permanent. That was 12 months agao. I'm currently in Afghanistan working and since checking this site I'm looking forward to getting home and getting into action. When I do get back I'll put on the pic's I have and then I'll start showing the full construction including scenery.
