Request from someone still trying to catch up with previous excellent sites suggested by poliss:

WILL YOU PLEASE STOP IT!  THERE AREN'T ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY FOR ME TO READ 'EM ALL!!!!!!

Well, it probably won't have any effect on him but it's worth a try, at least.

I've had an Illustrated Childrens Encyclopedia since around 1962. In it there was an illustration of the Ford Atmos, so I looked for it on the Interweb. That's how I found the Modern Mechanix website.

Here's one that someone found for me to look at (thanks to Nene Valley Tom)
http://www.zen84721.zen.co.uk/woodend/
A nice layout with good ideas for any scale . A newish twist to end to end layouts . I think it would work well in 00 on a branch line
