Built by Jim Favre, this layout features continuous operation, no hidden track, no hidden staging areas, hand laid, precisely gauged track, is fully landscaped with lush tropical flora, is totally portable, carryable with one hand and finally answers the commonly asked: “What’s the tightest radius I can use?”

As mad as a box of frogs

It’s been variously described as “a classic” and “a great little layout”. It certainly pushed the accepted boundaries of minimum layout size. How big is it exactly? Just 36 square inches - 6″ per side with a 2″ radius circle of track!
