True.

True. <br />I don't think my layout is going to make any magazines, but I will document it before boxing it up and starting over. <br />It's funny, everything including my last order from Japan has just stopped. No work being done, no new builds....<br />Just....plotting. :)<br />Thanks for reading! malcoJOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362522805988503279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7059848918072264510.post-29635041739507286982017-05-25T10:57:24.707-07:002017-05-25T10:57:24.707-07:00What your going to find out about hobby like this ...What your going to find out about hobby like this - your suppose to make a layout. Photograph it and then send it in to the magazines. For sale so as to recoup your investment. Hence, if you look at N Scale Modeling. Lots of times they just make scenes for the cover and a few visually stimulating photos. Then, they just move it aside. Thus, is why N-Trak is so popular.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7059848918072264510.post-969028017437488172017-05-18T13:54:56.856-07:002017-05-18T13:54:56.856-07:00Yes, I've heard stories. I mentioned QUINNTOPI...Yes, I've heard stories. I mentioned QUINNTOPIA (http://quinntopia.blogspot.com/) tearing out his layout for similar reasons. Enough Frankensteining things to try to make things work. Sometimes you need a fresh start. <br /><br />Thanks for your kind words and thanks for reading. I'm a pretty modest guy - leaning more towards "I have no idea what I'm doing, but I like it" and hearing people praising my work has been really cool. :)malcoJOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362522805988503279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7059848918072264510.post-29871548777874215142017-05-18T09:11:27.882-07:002017-05-18T09:11:27.882-07:00Allen McCllellen had to tear out the V&O. Pell...Allen McCllellen had to tear out the V&O. Pelle Soboerg has torn down two layouts in 10 years. And those are but two examples of outstanding mrr's that have been reborn.

However, being able to get yet another round of things i wanted originally into the layout would be great. I wanted more layering height wise, track that I could run many different types of trains on, and a few other obtainable items, so I think it's well worth the risks. <br />I'm going to start a running list of what I have now and what I'd like to accomplish with a new layout. I think the costs would be minimal overall. Mostly some additional foam for decking. We'll see. :)<br />Thanks for reading!malcoJOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362522805988503279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7059848918072264510.post-8123880539777257352017-05-16T22:06:19.691-07:002017-05-16T22:06:19.691-07:00What is the worst case scenario if you tear it dow...What is the worst case scenario if you tear it down?Dwarfy Mcgeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978388101532232895noreply@blogger.com
