German N Scale Layout
John sent in some info on his N scale layout for publication:
This is a German Epoch lll freelance N scale layout situated on the Rhine. It includes part of the river with a barge and two stations.
The layout is approximately 4 1/2 x 3 feet and consists of two parallel ovals each with a passing loop. A backscene about 9ins from the rear allows an unseen area and trains enter and leave this by means of two tunnels. The layout is landscaped with a village scene in the center.
One of the ovals is AC powered and includes non-working overhead catenary towers. The other is DCC. Track is pre-ballasted Fleischmann Piccolo with electrically operated points on the AC circuit.
Locomotives are steam Classes 38, 64 and 50. I also operate an electric E19 and a diesel Class V 200. Both passenger and goods trains run on the layout.
