Actual Size

In HO Scale

Click on image for uber-large view….

I had the track plan plotted out full size for HO scale to get a feel for the size of the completed layout. Here is a shot with some HO cars and the completed sections of track placed on it.

Its actually larger than I thought, especially the curved freight house in the centre, which scales out to 25″x22″.

I have almost completed the design of the 4th and 5th sections and hope to build these this week sometime. I will post some pictures of the design work as soon as they are complete.
