Welcome to the Sytoomba Mountains Layout Page.

The Sytoomba Mountains is a fictional layout based on areas from around Sydney NSW. Part based on the Blue Mountains Katoomba, Part on Sydney City’s Central Terminal Which suffered from a major fire and had to be rebuilt along with our own mountain range.

The first step for the layout has been working on the design of the layout itself. From the design of Katoomba area, the Sydney terminal area and the Mountain range area. All of these have many different ideas and concepts to be integrated into the design. We have been discussing with train enthusists on the design of the layout and have some ideas in relation to the design of the layout.

A huge thank You to those who have helped design the layout.

The team from Sytoomba Mtns

There are also lots of lessons that need to keep in mind as this article suggests lessons on building a layout.
