Layout design

We have been building up to this article for a few months now.

Troels Kirk is a landscape artist and the skill he posseses as an artist is shown briefly in the sketches from which he builds his creations. This art background is displayed in full with the completion of each of his works. Construction of his layout in a Garden shed has gone on for about a year and we now present to you Troel's Layout House.

worlds smallest layoutAn N Scale Layout in Z Scale

For the last eleven years, I've claimed that I'd built the world's smallest working train layout (as seen in this video). Actually, that was the second one I'd built; the first was a slightly larger proof-of-concept version, which I donated to Rick Spano for his Sceniced and Undecided. Subsequently, I've thought about making more models of layouts, including an N scale rendition of a club-sized N scale layout in a warehouse, having two trains following complex routes, and being operated by a bunch of N scale club members.

scrap yardWorking on this project with my kids is a true labour of love. Thing is, my wife says I sometimes come in from the train room with exactly this same look...

Building your layout will be the most costly of all model railroading tasks. Much more then a simple model, the tiny details of layout design will kill your pocket book if you are not careful. A little patience, research, and careful use of pride will allow for a changeable plan that will be every bit a piece of art.
