To be screened this summer. It is now open to the public vote.
This is an opportunity to bring model railways and in particular
standard 0 gauge to the forefront on national television.
Therefore will you please vote for me and ask all friends and family to vote.

Voted. That's an incredible (model) railway you have there - I hesitate to call it a model because it's so extensive!

Hi All,
Thanks for the votes and comments.
The screens in the control room are c.c.tv screens showing tracks in adjoining sheds
which I cannot see from the control room to aid operation.
30 trains run simultaneously through 17 stations which are named after my Grandchildren.
I have to attend the final on June 10th I will advise win or lose.

Roy.

Thanks

End2end Although the control room is centrally situated 1 camera to each screen as an overview in sheds which are adjoining but cannot be seen from the control room.
