    Welcome to the fraternity, sounds like an intriguing situation. Can we expect lots of Arthurian references? I seem to remember a 'Lyonnesse' layout from way back in the 60s, but it would need some digging to find the appropriate issue of Railway Modeller. I look forward to reading all about future developments.

    I once had as a child a lovely folding double sided map of the Isle of Sodor that I have never seen again. I found it fascinating to have a detailed map of a fictional place until I realised it was sort of the Isle of Man.

    I wonder if Lyonesse will be twinned with Sodor? https://ttte.fandom.com/wiki/Island_of_Sodor
