Layout tour
Surroundtraxx Up & Running2
Here as I promised, my N Scale layout in operation. Recording with my Blackberry Playbook did not do the sound justice, especially the bass. Hope this interests someone.
R.D. Moses Texas & Pacific Model Railroad in Jefferson, Texas
After attending the Centennial Celebration of the T&P Station in Marshall, Texas my wife and I decided to drive up to Jefferson, Texas to visit a model railroad we had heard about.

There are some interesting things about the layout.
N&W Pokey District, Sub 1 3/4 Layout construction Update
Hey all!
I appreciated the comments of fellow MRH readers on my past blog entries. Your comments and suggestions have already had a dramatic impact on my layout for the better. Thanks to everyone! So I thought I'd give you a recent update.
The Brandywine & Benedictine Railroad - Suwanee, GA
This is the fourth layout I operated on at Dixie Rails. It is a great example of a well planned layout and a great craftsman. The B & B is in two parts very good investment in time to watch both, many great ideas. You will have to open post to see second link to part II.

The Diamond River Valley Railroad- Lawrenceville, GA
The is another of the great model railroads of the Dixie Rails group. Great operations and layout design. Built switches in place buy printing Fast Track diagrams and gluing them into place and building on top of them.

THE SAINT LOUIS GATEWAY N GAUGE RAILROAD
This N Gauge Layout is part of Dixie Rails in the Atlanta GA area. This is the best running N gauge layout I have ever operated on. It is DCC and not once the whole night that we ran 50 trains did we have one problem due to track of electrical connections. The owner John Wilson has come up with a system of moving blocks of cars with markers on top that are easy to read for all of us who do not see numbers on N scale cars well.

NORFOLK & WESTERN RR, NORCROSS, GA.
This Model RR is part of a group in the Atlanta area called Dixie Rails. This video was taken during a operations event attended by 50 operators from around the country. This RR will be part of the NMRA national convention in Atlanta July 2013. I will post video of three more outstanding layouts.
