This is about a small TT scale layout in a spare bedroom. The space is my in house work shop as well as hosting O scale and N scale layouts over the years. This is just a continuation of a modeler's wandering thru the hobby's many facets. The recent N layout was fun to operate but I decided a simpler track plan and concept would suit my interests  better.

Are you still doing Erie Western as your home road?    I have a Herald King decal set for an ERES covered hopper you can have if you want.   Email me your address to ljcasey1 at gmail dot com

take it easy Tom,

Okay. I concede. After three years of building and redoing I have come to the conclusion that I have made ALL THE MISTAKES. I did not have a plan at the start, or even know where I was going. Just pick out a track plan and go for it. Will now I have way to many problems to try and salvage the layout. The original layout was a Super Pretzel from the Atlas book in HO scale. I modified it by raising some of the tracks for the over and under effect. No real switching opportunities, or much in the way of branch lines.

Hi everyone,

I am modeling the Great Northern in Minnesota in 1954. I am building a 2x10 set of modules currently for a small switching layout and plan on building a larger mainline shelf layout in the future to add on. I am planning the layout to make it so that I can switch between 1954 other eras. This will be for 1-3 operators.
