Milwaukee, Racine & Troy HO scale steel cupola caboose - road name 1407
Don’t miss this exclusive HO scale Milwaukee, Racine & Troy steel cupola caboose.
I don’t see my grandparent’s house a stone’s throw from Bowman’s Dairy, just across Crystal Lake Avenue at the top of the hill.
I vaguely remember a trip to Chicago from Crystal Lake on a heavyweight commuter train, pulled by a steam locomotive. It would have been in the late 1950s. Is my memory failing me?
I really look forward to the start of construction. This could become of your best projects yet.
I like this plan a lot, but how would you suggest modifying it for the modern era?
like this plan,thank you for putting this together for us out here in tube world.
Will this be built as a project layout sometime in the future… and in someone’s former office at Kalmbach?
Interesting concept! Sounds like a ‘marriage between an American concept of a ‘switching layout’ based on particular town, and a British ’round the walls’ type layout. Have you considered topping & tailing the passenger trains on the traverser so that power can be swapped from one end of the train to the other – more switching.
Great Idea.
Great animation on the 3D layout guys and it is a fine example of a nice layout start to finish, when do we start the bench work? I especially like the idea of the transfer table generating a flow of traffic. Thanks.
Great plan!
Hi David – For a staging yard for the lower RR why not run the line under the upper one onto the transfer table, making it a double-decker transfer table, all using just one set of slides? You could make the upper tracks open so you could access the lower tracks. It would work!
Is this an MRVP project layout? Or the mag?
