A Place....
Here are some photos of the redone garage side of the layout. Sequence is on the track diagram. Sorry on the train going so fast.
A Place....
It's been a bit since I had something to share...but I've been busy. I am currently completing a rework of the wiring for one side of the layout. T have forged ahead while leaving open wires behind. I am correcting that mistake.
CN Vehicles Completed
Able to finish some CN vehicles over the holidays for my layout, Trenton Subdivision in N Scale. Including a supervisors car, work vehicles and tractors for the Covidpan Intermodal Yard. I used Testors Insignia white, Rapido CN Red and Highball Graphics CN MOW Decals. Captions on the photos below give manufacturers and details of the individual models.
Cornhill and Atherton - 10 years in the making
On checking I was pleasantly surprised to see that the individual C&A blog segments total just short of half a million reads and well over 3000 comments 
With Christmas fast approaching and the C&A also close on 10 years from conception I thought I would make a quick (4 minute) slide show of images very much in a random order:
Muskoka Central II Breaking Ground
Work on the new layout has begun. Phase 1 is an area 12' x 13' and will contain a yard, engine facility and a few industries. This room doubles as my home office and will be the workshop with my modeling desk and Airbrush booth.
In the Nick(el) of Time
It's been almost five years since I've posted on this site, nearly all of which was spent separated from my layout, and most of which was entirely without model railroading. I'm not at all bothered by spending my mid-20's gallivanting around instead of playing with trains. But between the current state of both the world (melting down under a global pandemic) and my life (settled in a long-term rental house with my girlfriend, and rapidly becoming a crotchety old grandpa at heart), I figure I'll be hunkered down for most of the winter and will have probably the money, time, energy, and desire to really pick up the hobby again.
HO “Bedside & Hinged” Switching Layout
I found the MRH site accidentally a few days ago while searching for Track Plans for a very small HO switching layout that I've decided to build while away from home working. Kind of cool that a Google Search got me here via a picture of a track plan on Pinterest! I have a tiny room/office at my away place in Vancouver where I stay with a family. I'm hoping by documenting this, it might inspire other space challenged modelers to get building.
