   * Prototype ballast particle size 20-60mm with less than 5% of smaller particles, which corresponds to scale size 0.25-0.75mm for 1:80 and 0.23-0.69mm for 1:87.   * Prototype ballast particle size 20-60mm with less than 5% of smaller particles, which corresponds to scale size 0.25-0.75mm for 1:80 and 0.23-0.69mm for 1:87.
 +  * Discovered, that Tillig points are unrealistic with their plastic parts. Peco H0m gauge points look much more realistically. Switching plans from Tillig to Peco.
 +  * Maximum module dimentions including cover 1150x600mm

Also plastic pars can be replaced with metal rail profile cut to length and bent.
