Here is a small fictional narrow gauge project I've started. The layout is going to hopefully be about 10 miles long. Here's some shots of my progress.

Railway Done So Far

Image
Here are the engine sheds and yard. There are 3 sheds, and a lean-to that can hold outgoing goods trains until the next engine picks them up.

Image
Here is the first station from the yards. I haven't properly named it yet. It has a carriage shed for various reasons, a turntable, a two platform station, and a run-around loop which has a refueling tank, a water tower, and a coal staith, (which I have yet to add. :roll: )

Image
Here is the actual lane hence "Britomart Lane". It spans for about 3/4 of a mile into the countryside.

Current Locomotive Fleet and Stock

Image
The fleet consists of (L to R) Vale of Ffestiniog, Britomart, and Gowrie.*

Image
Here is the current stock fleet. There is the coach and the goods stock, (of which I will add on to later in the project.)

Not to mention, that I have a video of the station on YouTube.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qRIpeOnBVJc

All the engines have custom sounds (mostly made by me), and the coaching stock was repainted my myself as well.

I would appreciate any constructive criticism as well as any comments you have to offer.

-SuperD


*These engines are just ones I picked, and they are not really on any railway at the moment. I just happened to have them at my disposal, so I decided to make them my fleet.

That inspired me to create my own, (less refined, doesn't have much detail yet, track not finished, can't get water to appear, no textures yet)but I only started it on the 30th January! Looking good SuperD! Love those locos!
