Hi all, and endless thanks to all the fantastic and creative people in the forum.

Well I've desided to start build a sectional permanent track that can be packed away even though it will contain different landscaping.

Actually I set out to build a small test track so that I could clean up and fine tune all my cars that have been in the chicken shed all summer.
But I ended up with this:


After a litle playing around I thought that it would be an allright track to build as a permanent track.
And I started playing around and planning the different sections:

I used some time finetuning the TwistyCurbyHumpSection:


I still han't got a good idea as to how I'm gonna support this TwistyCurbyHumpSection, so any ideas are welcome.


And out of the twistyCurbyHumpSection:


And into Section 3:


The cars used for elevation supports are some of the cars that should have been cleaned and here is another one:


I did a small video while adjusting the different pieces of track

Sector1 Back:


Sector1 Latch:


Sector 1 and 2:


Sector 1 Storage compartment:


Placing of initial elevations


The Goodwood Pass:


First Test drive:


Aston Coming down:


Cop At the turn Around at the mountain top:


The front of the two sections will contain landscaping and track aswell and so will the top and bottom pieces for section 2
I've got quite a few ideas for this so I hope I'll be able to maintain focus and tuck along with all this track building stuff.

So please tell me what you all think.

Cheers.....&

Love the way you designed the waterfall section -- now that Goodwood section makes perfect sense. You've got a nice artistic eye. Looking forward to further updates!
wow, now it's all coming together. I especially like the way you painted the road on the small backdrop, disappearing behind the mountains. All very nice.


What's the size of the layout? Looks pretty compact.
