New Layout I'm working on - 12m x 12m - bijomaru78 - 06-07-2022

I have an abtitious plan for a new layout. Been using Railmodeller Pro to plan it as it's just too big for my regular approach.

Can anyone guess what I'm building here? Big Grin Should be pretty easy to guess.

I have no idea...it looks like something I would have made back in the day on a Etch-A-Sketch. 😎

That's easy? Don't think so... Although, the central area looks a bit like Chicago metro, but...

The congested part is definitely a metropolitan area, but not Chicago Smile

I'm trying to use the trains we have to replicate real lines, so the list is still growing by a few more extensions. Won't be able to work on it now until the weekend, but this thing will require finding a suitable place to build it as well since I don't think it will fit in our garden easily.

We're talking capital, plus a larger scale. But a different continent Wink

PS. I'll post an updated layout later

Bingo. That, and the main Shinkansen routes across Japan, plus some local routes that I have the trains for.

I have 2 prospective locations I can rent out for a day to do the assembly, recording and then have some fun with the family Smile

That sounds like loads of fun Bijo 😃

Since you're building a rail transport scheme of a capital, and we know what trains you have, we should guess it is Tokyo. But your scheme still looks to me more like Chicago than Tokyo. This is Tokyo:

So it's a bit hard to recognize it from your drawing. But nevertheless, I really think you have a great idea, and there will be much fun in realizing it for you and the whole family! Please keep us up to date with the progress of this project, Bijo! 😊
