It is a layout that I produced in September. A Japanese article held out and was translated into
English though wrote before.
This layout published in MICRO / SMALL LAYOUTS of Carl Arendt is it.

Good morning, Robert. I wish to express my gratitude for your comment.
It is a thing that I hopes now to obtain the camera with a high a little more resolution. Hmm... When the photograph that I took again is seen, being possible to do is a little bad  |

Hello David. I am taking a rest eating lunch of soba now.
It was so, and three another months passed after I had made this layout. It is scheduled to go to Shizuoka tomorrow of holiday so that I may obtain more material for the layout production in the future.
If tomorrow's weather avoids it, I should take the photograph in Mt. Fuji. Because Mt. Fuji suits the tea field well. |

I'm eagerly awaiting the reactions on the layout from the visitors in Shizuoka. I already know here in Germany reactions towards T-gauge were mostly positive, but I don't think it will gain the popularity of Z-gauge anywhere soon.
それだは、静岡模型鉄道展覧会でがんばってください！

Im looking forward to seeing the reaction here in Australia. Had mixed reactions on the Australian Model Railway forums.....mostly along the lines of :
"Whoa. T Gauge is waaaaaaay to small. I can bearly tolerate N Gauge, let alone T gauge. "
"Lol T Gauge is waaaaaaaay too small. N is small enough for me"
"OK, T-scale really is taking things a little too far"
Will be interesting to see the reaction from the public once layouts hit the exhibitions!!

Guter Abend Toni.
Ich war fähig, heute schönen Mt. Fuji anzusehen.(Ist es darin korrekt?)
The infiltration of Germany's Z-gauge might have been early. I bought in the stocking filler in 1976(11 years old) and parents bought it. The class89 moves still neatly!
Toni. I was an insufficient explanation. I went to drive dampflok preserved as a volunteer in Shizuoka today.
The scene on the railway track to which it incidentally went in the tea field and the bamboo grove was observed.
Then, Mt. Fuji that I had seen was very beautiful.
I will open some images to the public here among those. |

Good evening, zomer.
I belong to the model railroad club of local. The festival is held in February every year, and I also plan to exhibit the layout of T-gauge in it.
Naturally, the centered exhibition is N-gauge. How do spectators who saw my T-gauge react after seeing N-gauge?
I am looking forward to it very much.
However, the majority of spectators is a children and the mothers. 
I will report on it.
I think. T-gauge is the best for the train model that runs in big nature of the scale? |

I have had thoughts of just taking the layout along to exibitions, uninvited, and just set it up somewhere. Mind you, I had that thought with the much smaller TY layouts too, but never did it. The point it that they are so small you could probably get away with it.

Here's a wild idea. Instead of taking a layout, wear a wide-brimmed hat with a circle of track mounted on. Wear it around the exhibition with a train running, just to see if you get a reaction. 
Then again, the train would easily get stepped on should it derail...

I'm not German, but actually from the Netherlands... So it could be grammatically wrong.
Yeah, I misinterpreted your post. Were you still able to buy some extra track and other T-Gauge related stuff in Shizuoka?
I'm eagerly awaiting the photos of Fuji-san. Have you also managed to make a picture of the steam train and Fuji-san?

Sorry, I'm taking this off topic.
At the local model railway club, they have a 'show and tell' after the main meeting. So I brought my T layout into the room. And yes, the trains were already running.

Hello! B67.
It is a thing that worried certainly.
Should I prepare the glass case?
No, it is safe. All children in the vicinity where I live are good children.
Though it is not confident. Perhaps... |

Good evening TBA. Thank you for a wonderful idea!
If it is a size of my hat, an enough size will be able to be taken. However, I should bow when higher ranking people come. The train will surely fall! |
