While I am looking forward to the AMRE in June, this update from Will James from "Warrnambool Model Train Show, Victoria, Australia" makes me think about building a layout. Well, finishing my layout.

I particularly like the multi-gauge layouts and the micro layouts;

This is also the time to get my head around #DCC.
I am sure this tech can be used else where, not just on #model #railway layouts.

More on this, I notice that Will has updated the standards document for Freem009 modules!

Time to go back and check what needs updating on my module.

FREEM009 - AUSTRALIA — WILL JAMES RAILWAYS

Another youtuber I follow is selling this gorgeous winter themed 009 narrow gauge shelf layout that they made last year. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvzR9HnXhsaqmJTzFamhNRPzSD7CbYbUA

I’d love it but would have to buy some rolling stock for it. And find somewhere to keep it. Seems a bargain price so far but I suspect it’ll rocket as the end of the auction gets closer. Wish I had the patience and time to build my own.

Sound chip for the little Baldwin arrived today.☺️
Well, what can I say - I absolutely love that little kettle! 😍 #Modelrailways #Modellbahn #OO9
My original Southern-liveried Bachmann OO9 Baldwin 10-12–D had to be returned due to mechanical issues last year and there was no replacement available.
Therefore it makes me even happier that I was recently able to acquire this beauty.😍 #Modellbahn #Modelrailways #OO9

Some progress made this evening. A couple of square inches of sparsely used track ballasted.

@drewzero1 yes! The #HOe #OO9 stuff is incredibly compelling. I can’t remember how I found the #BTrainShorty models but I can only really get them imported from Japan and have to motorise them with additional chassis. They’re great on a smaller setup though as you can still have a few carriages and have the effect of a longer train.
