Hi Tom, only thing I can say is keep going at a steady pace. No matter how long or how many layouts you've built you'll always find something that needs sorting. Regards John

You have the potential for a really good layout there. Nice to see the wide radius curves - coupled to a manageable plan. Good that you have trains running already - this is important when things go wrong - then you can just run some trains. One thing I will say, get your loft location sorted first. Insulate if you can even a little bit. You can explain to the family that it will save 'the family' money! Lofts can get extremely hot in summer and cold in winter. If you can reduce the temp change and use a dehumidifier, it will help both baseboards and models no end. I found this out the hard way. Look at Richard from Everard Jnc. His first loft layout bowed and warped forcing him to give up and start again. Again, you have progressed alot further than me of late. It is great to see younger people building this kind of layout. What I call a real enthusiasts railway, built where you can, with all the pressures of family life below competing with your valuable train time! Good luck sir..... look forward to the next video.

Well done and good luck with the layout. I did basically the same thing and didn’t plan it out very well. I am still trying to improve and work on it. I have 2 main tracks, a four track station at one end at at the other I have two loops in either direction. All my locos are DC and it is cost inhibitive to chip them I look forward to seeing your progress Regards Charlie

you can screw a 1x2 on to the top of the table, that would make sure you get the two sides lined up then screw in your post

Hi Tom, looking good 👍 my bit of advice would be to build your layout once and get it right the first time. Just take your time. I've done my layout three times now, and as I thought I was getting somewhere bad luck struck again, and I'm not getting any younger, so I decided not to put layout back in loft @44 I can't be arsed climbing ladders and being in the way of kids and the missus so a shed maybe the way forward for me. Tom Measure twice do the design of what you want and build once.
