Peter’s Layout 1960’s To 2008
Peter from South Africa has sent in this photo of his layout and writes:
In November I went down to cape town for a few days and bought a class 25 condenser from a friend there which is a 4-8-4 and the total length of the loco and condensing unit is 42cm so it’s large and was assured that it would fit through my 18-22 inch radius curves but alas it did not so had to add 30cm to the one side and 50cm to the end of the board to accommodate 32-36 inch radius curves and had to build a new section to the board.
I am attaching a photo of the board and the loco for everyone to see. My board is 6 meters in length that is one side plus 1.25cm across which gives me a running track on the main line of almost 16 meters. As my layout is based on south african railways in the 1960’s to late 2008 I have deisels and steam on my board and is based on a small south african village in the cape province.
