4' x 8' layout anyone?

Like most of us, we started out with a 4' x 8' layout. When I was knee high to a Grasshopper, I was biking home from a railfan trip at Oakville Yard in Ontario and spotted my Dad's car with a 4' x 8' particle board sheet strapped to the roof. Dad was never into the hobby, But he helped me get started! And I thank him for that. Happy Father's Day!

I was looking at Google maps of the area around North of Vancouver and I came across what looked like a 4' x 8' layout!

N-Land Pacific Free-moN at the Big Train Show 2015

Here is a time lapse of our set up at the Big Train Show June 2015. It usually takes us about 5 hours to set up about 75 modules. The keys for us are to agree upon a trackplan and stick to it, having a coordinator so things land generally where they should upon arriving, and many hands on deck. We had 21 members help with set up and a few extra for the show.

Making HO scale snow fencing

In a recent Weekly Photo Fun thread, a couple people asked about the snow fencing in my Bluffs enginehouse scene.  I wrote that that fencing was made by a friend from the Yahoo Proto-Layouts list, Randy O'Brien, by applying a solvent to plastic window screen material, hammering it flat, and then painting it orange.

Railroad Patch Collection

These used to belong to my Great Grandfather and I am pretty sure most of them were actually from the railroads. I was given these for Christmas and also have a few more in storage. If anyone else has a collection it would be cool if you posted it here. Lets see how many we can get. 

10 to start it off.
