My Layouts

I have been fortunate enough to have 3 different layouts in my lifetime. My first layout was a Lionel 3-rail, c1959, that my Dad and I built when I was growing up. Unfortunately, no pictures.
My second layout was a road-and-rail, c 1998, in RAMONA, Ca where my son grew up. An HO scale Tyco slot car track and HO scale railroad were constructed on a table of two 4x8 plywood sheets arranged in a T. The 2 roads crossed each other.
My current layout is a modular HO scale railroad designed and built in VISALIA, Ca, c2012. It had 6 modules formed in a loop. 80% of my scenery photos are in this album.
Only 4 modules were moved to Vista due to access restrictions in our present home. The VISTA layout is now more of a diorama for displaying my models, but there is enough open track to do some switching ops. Very little has changed in the scenery since Visalia, but 4 turnouts were added in Vista for another access into the yard.
