Layout Specifications

Main Portable Layout

A 4 x 16 foot portable layout that can be transported to model railway shows. As it is more of a showcase layout, the portable section is designed for multiple trains running through a combination of urban and rural scenes (due to space constraints, one module is only joined when not at the clubhouse)
