00:00 - An update on my OO gauge boxfile layout ‘Caran Leisg.’
10:05 - Running session, assembling a train
Caran Leisg Bakery is my box file layout based on a fictitious location. I’m building my skills by making this layout.
My aim is to build an operationally interesting layout with smooth running for not a lot of money.
Using KZfaq and RMWeb I taught myself electronics from zero and built a controller in a margarine tub. Locomotives are Mainline locos from the 1980s which I have serviced, and are awaiting weathering. I have two Mainline J72s and a Mainline Class 03. These cost me £15 in 2018, and £30 in 2021 respectively.
Rolling stock is mostly second hand, and some has been renovated from broken vans found in bargain bins. I did buy a new Dapol coach (old Airfix design) for £10 in July 2021.
Track work is Peco Setrack.
Ballast is sand from the beach.
Buildings are mostly LCut Creative.
There is still a long way to go but we are getting there.
Thanks for watching.

Great layout, even managed to throw a runaround in. Sure adds to the possibilities.

Small layouts can be even more fun than large ones if you like shunting. This is a great example of how to have a layout when you don't have permanent space. Excellent!

I'm working on my own boxfile layout: n gauge, and in a single box that folds out (with a simple 'fiddle yard' to attach at the end). You've given a few scenic ideas here.

Hi Andrew. Just proves layouts don`t have to be large, i don`t think you can beat the pva /water with a shot of fairy for fixing the ballast . maybe a walkway over the join !! subscribed as well..

Cheers Anthony! Glad you like it. Yes, I’ll be re-doing the ballast the traditional way, am very unimpressed with Ballast Magic.
