New Micro Layout!

Well, after a very good response from send in my first micro layout to the late Carl Arendt's E-zine about micro layouts, I have decided that I am going to start a new micro layout.  The pictures pretty much explain what I am doing.

 Here is what I am using for the layout.  It is an old cabinet that I found lying on the side of the road.  It measures 11.5 inches by 27 inches on the inside and 12 inches by 30 inches on the outside.

 Here is what I am thinking for a track plan, the holes cut in the sides will provide an entrance into the "stage" which is the interior of the cabinet.

 overhead lights will help to illuminate the scenes and help me see when working on the layout.

I also may be able to have only half the layout seen at a time.  perhaps each half can be two different industries?

Carendt.com update.

Well, I am happy to announce that the debut of my first Micro Layout was in the Small Railroad Scrapbook, February Issue, 2012.  To see it click http://carendt.com/scrapbook/page108/index.html.  No that I see that I can create a layout worth showing on the internet, I am starting a new micro layout to be finished this spring.  check back soon!
