The Reid Brothers Cumberland Valley System. After reading about this layout, I realized the merits of focusing on a road name and having rolling...
Reading these posts again reminded me of an n-scale model railroad that I recall was called Sogn Valley Railroad. It was a fictional line based...
. An important reminder is that the train show has moved to a new location at the High School Fieldhouse - not the college.
I must add as a side bar, in 40+ years of model railroading, I have noticed very often model railroaders are modeling someone else's layout...
The Clinchfield project done by MR under the guidance of Gordon Odegard is the layout that has had the most influence on my own layout and n-scale...
I have 3 of the SP locomotive and the trailing truck of one comes out from time to time. It is easy to re-install, but..... Seems it could have...

Yes, very sad news. I did not know his real name, but read his posts on n-scale and then finally learned he worked at Rapido. May he rest in...
I made a mistake!!! I do NOT find the MTL couplers for their heavyweights listed on their web site.
The pictures are inspiring and speak volumes in support of the effect of lighting on a layout. I model the 1940s, thus would like more nicely...
I believe I recall seeing the MTL body mount coupler as used on their heavy weight passenger cars in their online website.
The W/S lighting system intrigues me. I have not purchased any of the many options simply because my home layout has been packed since the...
I agree regarding these excursion and the recent heavy weight passenger cars. The latter are nice, but not within my budget. I have two that...
Freight or passenger? If freight, what sort of cars? Thanks.
