John, LOL See what I started? You got that many kit's too?.....Dennis

THANK YOU ALL..Dennis

Dave, I will try that instead of cutting all these base's.

Hi Curt, I wished I built immediately. But I was saving till kid's left the home. Now's there's tote's everywhere I look. Dennis

Tom, I'm glad I'm not alone. This is tougher then I thought. I never planned one before. I just winged it with back then. over 300+ kits you have? How? that's a lot of kit's. Dennis

Tommy, Those are some nice looking building's. Dennis

Thanks Bob Dye, I cant even imagine 300 kits!!! Wow!! yes. It's 13' Long with a 5, turn around and straight run is average 30" deep with 3-4' end for my city. there's two legs that are the same and the middle one is 8'x3'. I wanted to knock a wall down, But wife said no way lol. Not lucky like John. Dennis

Thank you Bob, The room was only storage until this year when I did a massive cleaning. My wife is still looking for stuff.   Dennis

Thank you Tommy. Believe me I will start small. It was the 80's when I has a small layout, But most of my kit's then was plastic. Then kid's came along. Done!!!!! lol.Dennis

Thank you Vince, Mark, Jerry, John, I will study my butt away. I honestly didn't know that I dug out that many kit's lot's I forgot about over the years. I forgot to mention I really want my round house's somewhere. Those are my favorite two kit's of them all. I will be asking lots of questions and I hope I can do those kit's justice. I have a couple of cheaper kit's that I will be building first.Dennis

some kit's....Dennis

I finally cleaned out my storage room and added wall's over the basement cement and painted it. I started to build the frame work for my layout. The room is 13 x 20 and layout is 13 x 17 and it has 3 Peninsula's the end Peninsula's are twins 13' x 30" and with a 5' turn around at the end's and the middle is 3' by 8', I been buying stuff for 30 years so when I retire I can start my layout finally after we got our kid's out of the house lol. I been building my base's for my Fine scale Miniature's and my South River Modelworks never mind the the other companies. I counted about 60 kit's that I found.  My question is How in the heck do you guy's fit all those kit's on the layout? I cut about 25 foam base's and it's taking up about half of the layout without track or anything else. Please beat me up if needed. But I might have to get rid of some (LOT'S) of kit's? Or if I add on to the house I can move layout to the new section? I really could use some advice Please...Dennis. P.S. I'm trying to resize pic's to show room.

Beautiful job as always Karl, Dennis

Thank you Karl..........Dennis
