Building a Small Shelf Layout

I decided to put this video together to show how easy it is to get started on a small shelf layout that offers plenty of operation for its size. Just about everything I have used here is second hand ; base board, track, wiring etc. The only items purchased new are the toggle switches. I start with showing you the shoddy looking track and go throughout the motions of getting the layout running in this short 20 minute video, from track plan to soldering wires to uncoupling methods and running a train. If you would like to see how I create scenery, please make a mention below and I'll get onto this next as Part 2. You can follow the build at Platform 1 MRC : https://platform1mrc.com/p1mrc/index.php Platform 1 MRC is a model railway forum.
