According to my father who's from Cold Spring, NY, a friend's father worked at Croton Harmon for the Central. He told my dad to see the new...
I should say that my layout is medium sized, so trains on the main of about 10-12 cars will be the max, and maybe 4-5 on the branch. We'll see...
Just curious how the Model Power Mikados, Pacifics, Moguls and Americans run. Also the Life Like 0-8-0 and Bachmann Consolidation and Mountain...
Last FL-9s I knew running were on the Wassaic line. Used to see one tied up at night there. But I moved to TX in 2006, so no idea when it was...
Pretty much what I was thinking. I really enjoy branchline operation with some challenging switching. I just like having a mainline that I can...
I used to work in the hobby industry and usually all the shipping charges were broken down either in print or on the website. I'd call Walthers...
That would help. I'm figuring in the range of 10-12 cars or so, 40 and 50 footers. Branch would be more like 5-7.
I've been designing N scale layouts for my new available space for a month now with no real success. So maybe you guys can help. My space is...

It may be that the video you have was post 1968. At that point NH was part of Penn Central, and passenger equipment in the northeast was all over...
Thieu, the streetlights you put up in your photo are still in use in many cities in NH territory. Those lights are still in Naugatuck, CT, a...
Cool! Do you have a track plan available? I want to model B&M, CV, NH, D&H on my soon to begin N scale layout.
I went to Castleton State College in 1990. The tracks through campus were gone, but the remaining ones were there out of town. They were ripping...
Adirondack and Catskill Branches The Catskill Division ran from Kingston, NY to Oneonta, NY. It's really rural, mountainous, and had couple of...
Got mine on order I went a few days ago to my local shop and pre-ordered my four cars. Can't wait to get them later this year.
A crude graphic of my available space Sorry, it's not to scale, but here's a rough outline of the space I have available for my layout. Under...
Design underway Well, I got my MRP 2007 a few eeks ago, and have decided on keeping my original plan for the main part of the layout. However,...
I worked in a hobby shop and ordered the set when it was in the N scale catalog two years ago, I think. We never heard anything about them....
Thanks I've been to North Creek and the RPI layout in the past. Thanks for the tips, I'll check them out.
