Layout tour

Florida Springs

Chris asked me to post these for him

 

 

Florida Springs

Hi all

First post here

Id like to share a couple of videos of my latest exhibition layout with you

 

The first one was taken on Thursday morning and was the first test run on the layout that I started on Tuesday 

The second one was taken on Saturday afternoon 

The part you can see is 6 feet long by 1 foot deep

The two CF7s are Athearn units with Kato motors and ESU LokSound decoders 

FCEN is a custom job by Southern Tier Models. It's CVs still need some tweaking

Buffalo Line Operating Session

Here is a link to the Pennsy layout operating session I noted in the pictures of me operating the yard engine on Steve Mallory's Buffalo Line. Rather dramatic, but that's what the photographer had in mind.

Layout Update #5A

The section of the layout that is in the video is where the double track mainline goes in/out of the west helix, the branch line goes in a loop above the west helix, and the town of Michaelson is against two walls.  The depth of this section is 30 inches and so I found that it would be easier to remove each module and work on them when I was sitting down as opposed to stretching over them after they are screwed down in place on their support structure.

First real layout, progress update...

Whilst I sip my hot cup of java, it's time for an update!

First attempt at a real layout...

 I have been reading, researching, collecting hardware, building structures, and weathering rolling stock for a few months.

Now it's time for a layout!

I am going to document my progress here because I am excited to get some feedback.
