N gauge shed ideas guys?

Post by atnas666 »

Hi guys playing with the idea of a n gauge lay out in my shed.
It's 8x6ft standard apex.

Any thoughts on what I could do? May b even a pic?


Thanks in advance

Probably round the edge would be most practical.
Thanks

Yes I'd say round the edge, keep the boards fairly high with the backscene protecting the section in front of the window from strong sunlight. Then you can still have your workbench under the window.

You could make a model of an N scale shed. A shed in a shed.

You first. Maybe even a floor plan? There are plenty of keen planners in the forum.

If you are modelling modern image, build a loco depot and get a class 66, then you can have a shed in a shed in a shed :D

Best of luck with the project.
