Title: Some 1/24th narrow gauge railway - with a boat...
Post by: Jhock on May 31, 2020, 06:55:42 pm

While I wait for my first RC boat kit to arrive I am working on a very small (but large scale) model railway.

The loco is radio controlled with an onboard lipo.


I am using an ikea Apa box (wooden toy box) to build the layout in.  The plan is for a small dockside scene with the train being used to unload the lobster boat.


The boat is very freelance and designed to fit the space and most definitely not sea worthy!

Sounds like a bit of fun while, at the same time, honing your modelling skills - I like the idea so I'll tag along and see what develops.  :-))
