How to build a Hornby railway layout

 

For this series of articles we have produced a small N gauge demonstration layout built with spare materials left over from other projects. This base board is approximately 18" (450mm) x 12" (300mm). The scene is an old railway yard with a single terminating track adjacent to a hillside. As this is a demonstration piece small amounts of the layout remain unfinished showing the processes used.

All the materials used are freely available at your local DIY store, hobby store and on-line. These articles explain one way to build your own Hornby railway layout, other methods are available. This method requires little skill but will need some wood working capability and a little artistic ability.
