Overview
The sheer size of the layout allows us to operate up to three trains per mainline or a total of six trains simultaneously.
The modular concept allows the Club to set-up the layout in almost any configuration imaginable, the only limitation being the size of the structure, and allocated floor space in which we are going to display our railroad.
The Scenery is one of the major attractions about the layout. Most of the scenery is mounted on what we call "add on" modules that are mounted behind or in front of the regular modules that contain the mainline trackage. Various members have scratch-built structures and a wide variety of backdrops.
Wait until you see the "forest fire" scenes. Most of these add-ons feature are animated and are very popular with show visitors.
