Not visible but very important, the Trondheim staging area was completely redone.
The old staging area was a four track and the tracks were laid with
re-used old brass Roco track and turnouts from my childhood. The brass track was
causing a lot of problems and also the four tracks weren't enough.
The new Trondheim staging area has five tracks and is built using Roco line
track (code 83 without roadbed). It also includes a turntable (by Atlas).
This picture shows the helix during its construction in the spring of 2000.
The layout in the state of 2004, described in the way the US modelrailroad press is typically doing: The Dombås layout at a glance.
Seven years after its original publication, an updated article about the layout was published in the February 2004 issue of the Dutch modeltrain magazine Railhobby.
This picture shows the room without a layout.
