Working on converting everything over to DCC bit by bit.

A picture from my old apartment layout. I salvaged a fairly large plank and set up some temporary track I got for free from a local train show. Here, I have a Wabash […]

It can be pretty frustrating to see a new concept or what appears to be a layout photo, and then find out it’s not real through looking at details.

Brakes on!

I salvaged a fairly large plank and set up some temporary track I got for free from a local train show. Here, I have a Wabash local passenger train passing through the yard as a few other trains wait their turn. All the ties in the pile are hand-cut.

Hello all! Happy to be here. I’m an aspiring N and O scale enthusiast.

Big fan of point-to-point layouts.

I vidited Maine last winter and saw so many remnants of the Maine Central that I knew I’d have to model it. I narrowed it down to the Rockland Branch. With a bit of assistance getting […]

The minimum radius is a tight 6″, which means only the smallest locomotives and shortest rolling stock can handle the curves and work the line. Despite the diminutive 16″x32″ board, the layout has five unique destinations for cargo at three facilities, and…

Hope you can get it put together nicely in time for your show! What are the dimensions/minimum radius?

Here are some pictures of the current status of my N scale layout. The river scene with the N&W switcher crossing the creek caused the layout to change. Warping started on […]
