Dutch HRCA: Picture book Jacob Wieringa



My layout has become a bit smaller in size, but I'm told it has certainly gained in overall allure. The previous two-level landscape has now been turned into a single level layout that can best be described as 'a pretzel inside of a dog-race track'. Catering to both sides of the points/no points divide, the inner track provides hours of joy for the shunters, while the outer track allows uninterrupted running at speed.
