I'm alive!

 Hi all,

Still here! 4 years... what a time to pass. Sorry for the delay 😏

After a visit from a also US friend I realized that I still don't have room to let my big collection of H0 US trains running in our home. So he urged me to get started! But for that I have to rebuild my attic what is the most suitable space in our house in the Netherlands. It now is divided in 2 rooms and that "wall" (sheetrock) has to go if I want to accomodate that big home layout. But it houses also my hobbyroom so for that it demands a big (temporary) relocation of the stuff in there..... what have I got myself into?

I started collecting possible plans on the internet and my interest is a multideck layout. I have a complete suitable helix given by a friend, 7-turn, approx. 59" radius. That gives me the opportnity to have a basic level, staging level and second level layout. At least a double decker, good!!

So I started drawing today! I do that oldfashioned with ruler and pen. Scale of the drawing is 1:20: 

The collected and printed plans:

And some inspiring books

My idea is or Cascade mountains or Siskiyou Lines. Still working on that.

Progress will be slow, before tearing down the wall it will be at least 2 or 3 months further in time. So; stay tuned!😉

Grtz, Ronald
