Where it all started
I was undecided as to where to start with this, but I settled on a little bit of background history as to where the layout is going to be housed.
I had previously build a 12ft by 8ft shed with a central partition to split it into two half’s. One side was just that a shed and the other side housed my flight simulator. Unfortunately the side housing my flight simulator became overflow storage and I could never get in there to either play with it or further develop it. So back in 2024 I had a big clear out and made a decision to dismantle the flight simulator and build a model railway.
In 2025 I was not happy with the model railway I was building so again I made the decision to do something about it before I really got to far along the way with it.
What I decided to do was to have a serious clear out and redesign the shed to turn it into a single space for a new railway.

Whilst I was dealing with the changes I need to make to the shed I was redsiging my layout with Anyrail.
