This shunting plank was built on an off cut of plywood 20"x48", it was meant to be a quick project while I was waiting for an op. The original plan was for a goods yard using a wharehouse as a scenic break but I was able to squeeze an industrial siding/loop on at the back.
The layout is totally DCC controlled including the points so there is no control panel. The track is Peco code 75 with bullhead on the plain line and short radius points
Trains arrive and leave through 2 'mouse holes', the forward one is the main line and leads to a basic cassette, the back one is for industrial use and normally has a semi permanent 3 road fiddle cassette fitted
