Re: Leeds Railway Station
Woha, this is huge! How big is the layout in real-life terms?
Re: Leeds Railway Station
Hi there
I will be doing some pics of the T gauge layout now that I have worked out the platforms.
This layout will be in the main a 7 foot by 1 and half foot wide.
Actual real layout what i was intending working from would have been just short of 2km.
Can not wait till I get the basics down, but will cost a lot for the track alone.boohoo.

Hi There
I have just taken my first shot at building this layout in T Gauge.
Heres some pics of the platforms for that speak view.
I am using a 1mm cork base for sound reduction and for better running.
Will keep you all posted as things progress.
pics here
hope you enjoy.

Re: Leeds Railway Station
How easy did you find cutting and laying the cork?
Re: Leeds Railway Station
Did not do the cork well as I think it should have been placed as full sheets then platforms on top, but you learn.
Will be painting all the cork anyway and will be redoing a second coat for the platforms as they are too shinny even in matt.
Printed out the shapes for the platforms by 3D print which was easy until you have to reduce them down to 1.450 scale.
I will not be using too many points as this will keep the production costs down and for a simplified version as I will be running 4 running tracks and platforms 1 to 6 as a one ended loop back.

Hi T gauge Gang
Just to let you know that I will be proceeding again with this project as now T gauge has brought out better point controlklers and points with motors.
I think know that this layout will be a 10 feet by 3 feet with been the Station as the main focus with other sorounding buildings in situe.

HI T gauge fans
Just to let you all know that I now have the boards to start working on this project.
It has taken me a while to sort out of what I will be creating and how solve some minor problems out before track work commences.
Please see new pic for track work to be done starting this year.
Layout should be completed in 2 years but may be three depending how much time I can devote to this project.
Regards
Graham

Re: Leeds Railway Station
Good day T-Gauge people
Just to let you all know that I will not be continuing this layout until T-Gauge.com brings out the better turn points out as I will have at least 5 trains running all the time and cannot have too many trip ups.
I will get back on the layout when as such they brong the better points out.
Now working on Ribbleshead layout, so focus is on that for the time been.
Take care T-Gauge guys and girls and be safe.
