I recall a gentleman in Ontario built a CN-based layout that was basically 3 shadow boxes stacked and linked by an helix. Each scene was meaningful to the railway operation. I'm not convinced about the ergonomics, but that was nevertheless a clever approach to model the essential parts of a line in a convincing way.Matthieu Lachancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06812873374306516493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5807818366755087334.post-64369180294306471322018-05-24T09:14:14.491-04:002018-05-24T09:14:14.491-04:00Mike, it will probably the case.

Trains circulate from scenes to scenes in shadow boxes.<br />On my medium size layout, which is Layout Design Elements successions, I created 2 "time tunnels" to increase distance/time effect. train desappearing behind obstacles where they have to stop for a determined amount of time. <br /> Yvan Dérynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5807818366755087334.post-40953707142634551132018-05-20T21:04:56.579-04:002018-05-20T21:04:56.579-04:00I'm certain your architectural training will b...I'm certain your architectural training will be an invaluable asset.Mike Cougillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564049885150899945noreply@blogger.com
