Nothing better than photos. I speak for myself here but I love photos in books haha. Childish .. hmmmm ... Have you seen any big timers try to do this layout ? I'd love to learn more about it this railroad. The mess is great. Then we get to see what tools you may be working with. Gives us some inspiration haha! I think that is a normal part to this hobby to have your layout a mess. Heck I don't even clean it up most of the time I just shove it to the side to run trains! LOL If its not on the track we are in the safe zone! Especially metal objects! haha
True that! I had a friend over this week that I hadn't seen in years and wanted to show him the layout. It's a small layout, but it still took me half the day just to clean it up enough so that he could see a train moving through the rubble.
