    Oakville Central - in N?

    Thanks Hi, Thanks for showing me what they'd look like. I tried to do it in RTS, but couldn't get it to work nicely. Think I might have had the wrong track-library or something like that. Is it possible to mail them to me? Thanks once again. Evan

    N scale - please give ideas

    Hi all. First post, so here goes. I've got N scale equipment (very new - got for Christmas presents). I'm joining the local Ntrak club here in Cape Town, and have negotiated a space with the wife for use as layout at home. It's not going to be a module, as that I'll store in the garden...
