Layout Progress
Well here are some pictures of the progress I have made over the last few months. The last of the old layout has been torn out and replaced and most of the peninsulas have been built. Track has been started so things are beginning to look like a railroad again.
This will represent the entrance to the Everman Park:
Around the corner we go to the yard:
The Northern Tuton Railroad
Hi all,
About a year ago, I re-fell in love with trains. I have a very stereotypical story; loved them as a kid, "grew out of them" as a teen, and now, in my 20's, am finding my rekindled passion. :)
Four months went by quick!
Wow! I can't believe that it was April when I last posted to my blog here. I have been very busy with my layout entry for the Model Rail Radio contest,
I also rode up north to Gig Harbor to visit with Mike Deverell. We had a great visit, running trains and shooting the bull.
I also shot a little video of his layout

USMRR AT THE NMRA NAT CONVENTION 2013
I can't say enough about the craftsmanship in this modular display about the USMRR in 1864. This individual has gone way past the word excellent. Not only has he modeled something to great detail that is fantastic, but was done to the exact point in time and knows the whole story of what went on and how it was done. Hope you enjoy. Engines are run on Batteries and it is remote controlled.
Short animated video
Here's a (realy) short video clip I made. This is stop motion animation. About 100 frames = a bit over 3 seconds of video...
Hoarce sez he likes it. Kinda fun although it's a lot of work.

First Passenger for Trip Up the N-Scale Spline Helix
I've been laying track in one of the 10-track staging yards that are fed by the two spline helices that were built. The picture below shows Staging Yard A on the right side of the peninsula.

Here are a few photos of the most recent project on the Allagash Railway.
John Wilkes L&N layout
I just got done reading the August issue of MRH and enjoyed it as always. However what really got me excited was next month's announcement of the September issue. As a L&N modeler and railfan, i'm so looking forward to reading and viewing John Wilkes's new L&N layout. That big alco C630 makes me think of black smoke, alco rumbles, and coal trains galore. Can't wait. Thanks, Andrew.
