Thought I would show a few pictures of my Auto Distribution Facility.  The unloading ramps, trailers and buildings are from the Walthers Distribution Facility kit.  I ordered the cars off of ebay.  They are 1:100 scale, but fit the trailers nicely and give the facility a larger appearance.  The fencing is scratchbuilt using ceiling tile hanger wire, thule and thread to simulate the barbed wire at the top.

My N scale layout.

N Scale city models and skyscrapers (future train layout) Skyscraper & Urban Art

Reproduced 35mm Slide Photo shot by my Dad, Jay Thomson, at Etowah, TN in May 1984 On May 24, 1984 Dad shot N&W C36-7s 8505 (to NS 8505, to RBMN 8505, to EBBX 8505, to MRSL 3820) & 8507 (to NS 8507) with a southbound unit coal train in the CSX yard at Etowah, Tennessee. Note that 8507 is in an older paint scheme with "Norfolk & Western" spelled out.

This is one end of my new layout still in progress. Pic 1

16x8 started with the canopy

Canopy with LED lights lit. Also I airbrush a series of clouds. Best I could do. Nice thing is I can edit them easily. I will be changing them some in the future. The length is a little over 32 feet. Room is 20x8

This is the otherside of my new layout still in progress. Pic 1 Very much in progress. Long way to go. At least now I can run trains around the whole thing.

This is the beginning of my rocky forest side of my layout. My layout is deasert on 1 half and foresty on the other half. I have not decide how I will transition but I like both enviroments. This is a 5 inch rocky stone cliff made from pink foam. It is my first attempt. I will be doing a lot more. I have a long way to go. See pic 2

I am looking for a layout. My area is 2ftx8ft. Ho scale, want something simple that will run just one train. Any ideas? My first attempt at this...

HO scale 12x16 - My layout dimensions are 12' x 16' with 3 lines and a trolley line. The buildings are from my 4'x8' train set

This was my latest creation based on the Time Saver switching puzzle plan in HO scale. It will now be expanded based on a 13 year old former(?) layout that has been stored in my son's garage!!! I have had various train setups and layouts over the years, but never with scenery (or even ballast). After decades of armchair railroading, I am attempting to really build something worth having. I will post the plans and initial pictures in the next entry so the "header" on each page is relatively small. It is my hope that starting this blog will keep me focused enough to actually make some progress. Don't have name for it yet, but will be a mythical place in Minnesota where the Rock Island and Northern Pacific actually share a track! The main modification to the original plan is the addition of yard where I can store engines that are in various stages of development, either visually or the addition of DCC and lighting.
