Looks good thus far!

As others have already advised, take your time with it. More importantly, have fun!

Marker files now in place between Talacre and Holywell. Going to wait until I have them done up to Flint or Shotton before next big track extension.

Thanks for the support so far. :wink: :P

Just starting to get the roads in place around Rhyl. Not entirely accurate in places but close enough. Could do with some decent generic North Wales stations with the overbridge included as Rhyl is just two platforms and nothing else at the moment.

Cool!!

I'm from Holland but I've been on holiday in Britain several times and travelled much by rail there. A few years ago I went on holiday near Caernarfon, and I took the liberty of buying a railcard wich allowed me to journey the entire North-Wales coastline and branches till Crewe, so that's what I did! I have travelled almost the entire route between Holyhead and Chester especially between Bangor and Rhyll including the branch between Llandudno Junction - Llandudno and a little piece of the Birkenhead - Wrexham route between Shotton and Hawarden (to visit Ewloe and Hawarden Castle, the latter unfortunatley being closed to public).

I especially like the part of the route when it goes past just a few meters from Conwy Castle :D 8)
