4ft by 17ft Folded Figure 8 Layout
Ron sent in these photos of his layout to share:
My new layout is a 4ft by 17ft folded figure 8. I have most of the scenery done on one side. I have attached a few pictures of that side. On one side is a mine on the upper track, an interchange yard a small businesses on the lower track. The other side of the layout has a small yard serving a car float and local industries (no scenery yet.)
The Shamrock mine is a modified Walthers New River kit. I removed 1 story, shortened it for 2 tracks, scratchbuilt a new open conveyor a over burden tower.
The small community is Cherry Creek. The bridge is scratchbuilt and spans the lower mainline and a small interchange yard. The building on the right side is a scratchbuilt combination depot, hotel, and gas station built from plans in the Narrow Guage Gazette. On the left side is a scratchbuilt general store, Dalton’s Almost Anything (from the Red Green Show).
