The
Lowlands and the Bordobrach to Thorwick
branch
A sudden British caprice with a
connection to the Swedish main
layout
2015-11-15
Suddenly
a new narrow British section was
built on the lower level with a
connection to the Swedish main layout
on the upper level.
It
was built as a fictional urban
industrial area somewhere in the
Scottish Lowlands, with
inspiration mostly from British
model rail magazines, seen with
a Scandinavian eye.

layout at show at the Swedish Railway
museum

This

opportunity I have to have the
layout assembled and running
The exhibition is a yearly
module building event for both
H0 and N scale modellers.
At
last
- A room
at home where I can build up and
run my layout2013-06-02
Last
autumn I finallybeganpreparation
ofthe"train
room" in the basement.
The room which I
have dreamed of for so long. It willsoon,aftermany
years of waiting, bepossible to
connectand
runmymodulesevenhere
at home.
Now,the
first steps
are completedand there isan operable
layout, I
am still just in the beginning
of the project so many of
the connecting
tracks are just temporarily
layed on bare plywood strips.
For the moment I´m trying to
assemble
a couple of newly constructed
etched models
to find out what have to be
improved to produce the models
as etched kits for the
Swedish market.
Rusheden
- a quick built speed track for
an exhibition
(2009-12-25)
During 2009 I have built two
models of the Swedish high speed
train, Regina 250, used as a
test platform in the "grönatåget"
project. (se article below......)
To give these models a good
chance to run at full speed at
the model train exhibition at
the Swedish Railway Museum, held
in October 2009 there was a need
to build a high speed section
for my layout.
Another
production run of handbuilt
engines
(2009-01-20)
Early
november 2008 i started up the
second production run of the Hg
engines in N scale.
This run contains 24 handbuilt
locos with a body of my own
construction. 16 of the locos
are pre booked.
If everthing works well, the run
should be ready for
shipping, late february 2009.
New for this year is that the
body also is released
as an assembly kit availible in
my webshop.
When
this run is finished I will hope
that
there will be more time to spend
with the layout again.
A short presentation of the
operators of the
layout
(2007-01-14)
After
quite a few hours down in the
paint shop it is now possible to
make a presentation of the
different local operators that
works on this layout. Well, not
all are really local, even
British Rail has a far outpost
at this layout.

This scene became rather popular
at the module meeting at
the Swedish
Railway Museum were my
modules participated.
There has been a very low
activity of updates on the
english pages recently.
The main reason is that I´m in
fact are working with some real
model railroading.
