I finally figured out that I don't have room to do everything I want (2 trains, etc) on a small layout so I'm starting with something simple. This is loosely based on Lionel's D-290 display layout. I don't know if I'll add the upper level loop or not....

The Union Pacific N scale model railroad built by Daryl Kruse
I've started to document my process of designing and building my model railway based on Fareham station in Hampshire in the UK on my website blog. In doing so, I realized that most folks probably don't know that this started out as project to build an OO gauge model railway starting back in 2003. It wasn't until I finished designing the layout and started construction that I became engrossed with building Lego trains and it ended up being built out of Lego instead! When I recognized that I could combine my passions of Lego and model railways, I then recognized that I could build Fareham (or something close) with Lego brick. Starting in Aug 2013, I tentatively began this project and one year later I managed build a full oval shaped model railway. This railway is designed to be modular and transportable using a custom designed table system. Other innovations include the digital control network that runs around the layout for control and automation, integrated and discrete lighting techniques, and operational signals and turnouts. This illustration shows the traditional track plan of the layout and the scenery. I wanted to have curved shaped baseboards for a more organic and aesthetic look. The track plan was designed in XTrkCAD (open source track plan software) using the template library for Peco Code 75 fine scale OO gauge track components. This drawing was imported into OmniGraffle (Mac OS based illustration program) in order to make the multi-layered composite drawing you see here. This composite drawing is to scale and includes layers for track, framework, scenery, signals, etc. I can select any combination of layer visibility depending on what part of the design I need to focus on.
The Willow Creek model railroad is designed as a loop-to-loop configuration that operates using a point-to-point scheme. This combination provides a flexible track plan with an enjoyable operating scenario, facilitating both train and rail-car movements. The rail car ferry at Bucky's Crossing and

This track is simple to build — perfect for first-time pump track builders. Beginning and intermediate riders will love the outside loop. They’ll probably ride […]
When you live in an apartment, as I did when I designed the Southern Ry. Spartanburg Subdivision, you might think you have no space for a layout. But where there’s a will, there’s a right-of-way. My N scale Spartanburg Subdivision is 3′-0″ x 5′-6″ and less than a foot in height. Rather than legs, the [...]Read More...
