This month marks my second year of return to the hobby. I've built four layouts before this one, and one 8x8 that never really got past the table stage as my family moved shortly after completing the tables.
It's been a learning experience with DCC, multi-level track, scenery building (all other layouts were flat with no elevation contours), European NEM standards, locomotives, and rolling stock, and a lot of dreaming and planning for the future of the railroad.
My next tentative large project is to add a third rail to the ÖBB mountain branch line for meter gauge (12mm, HOm) Swiss mountain trains. The Berninabahn route from St. Moritz to Tirano is a meter gauge railroad with beautiful scenery.
I've enjoyed my time here with all of you.
