    With the exception of time being a major issue, I'm surprised you didn't pivot your second idea and have a mainline station with a narrow gauge transfer. Then you could have had a narrow gauge railwayto play with on your layout as OO mainline could run through o.o

    This was another awesome episode. I loved it.
    And I know some things went slightly awrie, but I'm so envious of that friendship shown when you were all together, it seems like regardless of what happens you lot will have a lot of fun. :) it was great to see and hear everyone in a bit more social and relaxed environment.
    Ooo there were even more team members this time, and all of the planns are sounding great.
    I look farward to more episodes and wish you all well. :)

    It's been lovely watching the process! Given me some inspiration for my layout (which is largely a baseboard with track on it 😂)
    That you or anyone here can recall, we're there ever any countryside train yards in the UK with or without a turn table? 🤔

    Judging from the fun & games from your attempts to buying the right corkbed (and the laughing involved), Im loving the concepts that all the other's are doing as well as your own. Pity you didn't think to have a narrow guage mine with a transfer yard for the layout. Good luck in completing it on time
