This is my first ho 4x8 train layout. As you can see, its not complete, so illjust call it an update. Ummmm, were to start. I used bachmann easy track for the track design. Instead of using it like it is, i ballasted it, and painted the ties and spikes. I painted the ties a brown, and i colored the spikes a rusty color. i was inspired to build an actuall layout by my grandpa, he has a n scale layout. Ive been in love with trains since i was born, so i couldnt resist. The restauront you see in atlas brand, and i used woodland scenics for the grass, bushes, trees, and about everything else. I painted and put together everyhting you see except the trains them-selves. I plan on having more people than you'll see in this next picture.So much for that, now the top picture. As you can see, i still have to tidy up the stripes, but for now, you get the idea. You can see a few people, theres more than the eye can see, but you'll notice the girl that fell over. I need to fix that, i do have a lake, but i dont have a picture of it. Im modeling a main street theme, not much right now, but tommorro im geeting more pepole, and ill fill the streets up with cars and signs. i have a super market, a fire station, police station, a restaurant, and a little repair store. in the next picture you'll see my first part of the layout that was first made.
