I am fairly new hobby, though considered getting involved for a while. It just so happens my son is a huge Thomas fan. He received the Lionel O Thomas set for his birthday and is in love with it, but I have been itching to set up a good N-Scale layout for myself. With no real particular layout or era I planned to model, I had an idea. Why not model Sodor for my layout, and let my sons run with the Tommix engines and rolling stock there, and I can run the engines and stock I am more interested in when I have time? That said, I have been looking for a reasonable map of Sodor, and what I could actually do on a 4x8 layout. There seems to be little out there (or it is burried under a lot of the wooden railway bits).
Does anyone have information on track plans or detailed operations for the Sodor railways? I know a lof of scale modellers may think it childish, but it is a good way for me to enjoy myself, and spend quality time with my sons as they grow up as well.
Thanks,
Justin
