MY ATTEMPTS AT MODEL RAILROADING |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Above is my son with part of our LIONEL layout. Some of these Lionel Trains and accessories, I have had since I was 6 years old. The rest we have acquired over the years. We have 3 "G" guage sets that we haven't made a garden layout for yet. Still in the planning stage. We sure have had, and are having fun!!! |

THE ORIGINAL RAILROAD |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Following are some pictures of my model railroad in different phases of construction. The original "HO" layout was 24' X 24'. It consisted of eight 7' by 30" tables and 4 corner tables. The whole thing was built on a modular system. I have moved 3 times since it began construction. The first move had most of the MR stored in the garage for 2 years due to lack of space in the new place. A much smaller MR was constructed in the mean time. The next move saw all of it stored for about a year. Finally we bought our own house and began setting it up again. We only used 2 of the original tables as they were. The other 10 tables were cannibalized to make the existing layout. |

THE SMALLER TEMPORARY & CURRENT RAILROAD |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stay tuned. I still have to put these pictures in. I have a
"Rail-Scope" locomotive. It has a small B & W TV camera
mounted on the front of it. I hope to film the layout from
the locomotives' perspective.
