Construction of my existing layout
For the construction of the layout I only used the professional open frame construction so that a collapse was possible any more. However, this requested an extensive planning, which lasted at least three months. I started to build in March of 1994. On the photo you see the left station exit with a "view" on the later town. the layout has a U-form with the control desk in the middle. There wasn't any room left for a shadow station, so I also took the adjoinig room to accomodate the shadow stations. Here the right corner of the connecting part and one of the three wall entrances (on of them for two tracks), at this corner The layout's right part - the main line and the branch line are crossing a small valley here, with the terminal loop of the main line. Rather right the branch line station is planned.
A view on the bridge of the main line, which crosses the branch line's terminal loop. The terminal loop became necessary after the shadow station also was carried out as a terminal loop. On the left you can see the exit of the central station. In the background there are the "girders" for the cog railway. Below it, the trains are changing to the other room. The works on the landscape are going on. The field railway is running and the gras begins to "grow".Also the first houses are allready standing.
The city, or at least the streets, with the station exit, wich crosses the city with two tunnels on the lower level. For "greening" the houses were still removed once again. You can also see the cog railway. It's running downwards first from the city to the Central Station, to climb the "dizzy" 32cm high mountains then.
