I have more scale hirail stuff than I ever should have purchased. I have come to realize I just don't like detailed scenery, ballasting and all the "realistic" stress anymore. I just want several loops for my scale three rail, tinplate, and standard gauge. I need it simple and relaxing instead of the eternal quest for realism. Anyone else been there? I have a 8 by 14 Mianne platform and I am actually considering just a loop of GarGraves O and a Standard Gauge loop. I guess the major question is what to do with all the scenery materials and stuff I spent a fortune on and never used. It is all just in my way and will go unused I guess. I have even considered an ebay blow out of the bulk of the scale stuff to create funds for tinplate. Is it me or is tinplate just a whole lot more fun. Any photos of layouts about 8 by 12 or so would be very appreciated here.
thanks
John
