I was curious about that staircase also Leyland, it looks familiar to me.

Sorry to leave you hanging - I must have missed this question about the blue stairs.

I can't shed a lot of light on them because they came in a big tub of used Tomy track and trains I bought. There were a few stray items in there and this was one of them.

I can tell you though, it is actually made of wood so I suspect it may be from a wooden railway set. It's an almost perfect height and dimension for Plakids and raised stations so I kept it as part of my scenery.

Here's a little video I made of MegaCity 1.

(Interesting to note how many Plakids are down. They're dropping like flies in MegaCity 1!)

Excellent video Finno

The onboard, cab views feels like I am right inside the Layout. What I have done with the curse of the falling PlaKids is a dab of rubber cement on their feet will hold them upright. Rubber Cement is not permanent an will simply rub/roll off. Of course this would only work with Plakids standing on a flat surface and not ones standing on the grass as I think it would be difficult rolling of the residue on that.

Love the mushroom lamp and the trail display shelf on the wall.

I also would not have guessed the stair case as being wood. Wonder what it was meant to attach to originally.

Here's my little holiday video for MegaCity 3 (please don't ask about MegaCity 2 - we don't talk about that dark period in MegaCity history). ShakeyCam and BlurryCam ™.

You will notice some new things about MegaCity 3. Let me know what you think.  I will be moving house soon so this is the last layout at my current location before it all gets packed up.

Enjoy!

Fantastic Finno. The Mega Station Tower fits perfectly into the Mega City. Did you make those neat lighted, action signs? The BluePlasticTracks shout out in lights is great.

Moving...are you going to have a bigger train room> Will it be hard moving your hand built Arcade Machine?.

The signs are quadruple 8x8 LED matrix displays with BBC MicroBit driving them running off a phone battery pack charger. If anyone is interested I can show you how to make them. Quite inexpensive.

Moving is a pain but it has to be done if I want a bigger train room! lol

I would be interested in how those lighted sign boards are made and if there are different sizes. If you are willing and you don't mind, could you start a dedicated Thread so its easily searched for? Something like that would fit in the Modification Guide Forum.

Bigger Train Room...priceless.
