London "Gatwick" (LGW) 1:400 scale.

That's looking good

My gosh that is truly huge!

And that's not a joke with some underlying context heh

I can't even really fathom the amount of work that must have gone into this up to this point already - due to the sheer size of this thing I'd say it's fit for a museum!

Fantastic work! Very detailed looking lay out so far.

Thank you for sharing

Thanks so much for your appreciation. The real problem is when i have to work on four adjacent wood panels, having no space it is really difficult.

Very difficult indeed.

Hi Charter,

Fantastic work! I know exactly the phenomenal amount of research, time and effort this must have taken for such a huge project! Amazing.

I've been busy myself on and off for a year now prepare for a similar project (preparation paper layout for now), but from the early 1990's era (as opposed to your more current-looking LGW layout).

Look forward to seeing more of your updates as you progress towards the finish line!

Cheers, Paul

What kind of wood boards are you using charter - MDF? Plywood? - thanks

Utterly fantastic! Your attention to detail is beautiful. I too am interested in what material you used for the flat boards and also for the terminal construction? May I also ask how long this project has been under construction? When it is finally assembled and lit, it truly will be a museum piece. I too am planning a 1/400 project but nowhere near the grand scale of yours and also will be free lance, not prototypical. Your photo's are most helpful. Thx for posting. 7274EVER
