Reply to "Switcher Saturday: 2016-Mar-12"

Great images this week as usual guys.

Hey Rich. I just looked at some of the links you posted.

I really like the really like the small wood boxed in layout it looks like fun for the kids.  Your hollow door layout inspired me to pull mine out and see how much is involved in fixing it up again after time stuffed behind the Boiler in my old place.

It is a bit worse for wear with no buildings or real scenery. The door was an odd size 22 inches by 6 feet. I was able to squeeze in a loop and a dog bone out of K-line Superstreets track as a trolley layout. So everything is under O-27. The layout mostly was running Atlas Industrial Rail Trollies I had modified to run tighter than O-27 by removing some limiting screws.

I  made it as part of a micro layout contest people used to do here occasionally on the forum. Articles for at least two issues of OGR came directly from these. It has been at least 2 years since we have done one maybe it is time to revisit the idea. I found the whole thing very motivating and a fun way to get something done. 

Maybe a switch layout with three switches under a certain size would be a fun excersise.
