Coffee Table Layout Under Construction

Gloria sent in these photos of her layout to share:

“Thank you for all the video’s and tips to you have sent me during the past year they have been very useful. I am sending you 2 photo’s of our unfinished coffee tab layout, as the moment we have not chosen a name for it. As its all based on ex GWR rolling stock and loco’s with the odd LMS locos. We have just called it a coffee table layout.”

Hi Monty,

Thank you ever so much for your reply, there will be more and far better photo’s that I will ask Robert to put up for me.

Yes it is but there is a long long way to go. As there is so much detail need adding to it. As being an ex G.W.R employee I like a lot of detail.

Clever idea. Nice work. How big is the coffee table? I might use this idea.

Hi Jim,

It is 6ft x 2ft which my clever partner built for me, it was suppose to be a small table top one, but with the amount of track and rolling stock it turned out the size mentioned. It has a slide out control panel and by the way its all DCC fitted, with a reverse loop.

Hi Dan,

Ours is covered in 13mm toughened glass when we are not working on it.
