    There are as many layouts that you can't see as what's visible here. There are at least 2 more HO layouts, one of them FreeMo, 2 more Hi Rail O, a Lionel on the floor layout, and we're supposed to be getting a TTOS display.

    Some action around the Capital PenNScalers NTRAK layout. I'll have some more pictures tomorrow.

    Oh, that's nice!:)

    With a lovely blue GP30 as a neighbor, no less.

    Nothing like looking at model trains surrounded by hundreds of tons of big steel machines.:cool:

    I agree 100%, there's nothing like running model trains surrounded by the 12-inch-to-the-foot scale stuff. I'm sorry I don't know how to put that into metric for our northern neighbors.

    That's OK. It's all 1:1 to me!:cool:

    I didn't erase the Imperial/SAE system from my brain the day we went metric. I still figure gas mileage on my car in MPG.:)

    Although it's Horribly Oversized, the group that models the Strasburg Railroad has done a great job of modeling the line. This is the Strasburg end of the line, with Museum model.
