How about trackwork? The trains we love can’t do much without track. Here are some track laying options when planning your model railroad layout.
Long before there were bullet trains and high-speed light rail systems, people experimented with creating super-streamlined trains that could whisk people across the country in Googie splendor. In some alternate universe, these streamlined trains of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s are still in service.
Way better than car traffic or flight delays.

A guide to taking a train journey on the Venice Simplon Orient Express and the story of our own experiences. The original Orient Express train service ran from 1883 to 2009, and its name became associated with glamour, luxury, intrigue, and even murder! In its heyday, it was the most luxurious train in Europe and today this tradition lives on with Belmond's Venice Simplon-Orient-Express (VSOE). The VSOE makes regular luxury train journeys across Europe, offering gourmet meals, private overnight cabins, and attentive staff within its wonderfully restored historical train carriages. The signature trip is the 36-hour luxury train journey from London to Venice which has to be one of the most elegant ways to arrive in Venice! We'll share all you need to know to decide if this trip is a good fit for you, from the historical background of the Orient Express to how to book the VSOE online, and we'll also share the full details of our own experience aboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express train.

Some photos draw you in and don’t want to let you go, so you spend entire minutes (that feel like small eternities) sitting transfixed, with your eyes on the screen. That’s exactly the feeling we get when we look at the pics featured on this subreddit that’s entirely dedicated to showing off the beauty of infrastructure. After all, (and let’s be cheesy here for a moment) infrastructure doesn’t just connect us together physically—it also connects our hearts through the mutual adoration of aesthetics.

About a year ago I started a Facebook Group dedicated to construction of my layout and sharing photos as I went, but unfortunately I haven't been posting much on the MRH forum. I'd like to continue sharing the layout construction on the MRH website, a page dedicated solely to Model Railroading/Prototype Railroading. A little background, since my early teens, I’ve been fascinated by railroad operations along the Connecticut River in Vermont, locally known as the Conn River Line. The combination of three railroads including the Boston & Maine, CP Rail, and Central Vermont sharing the same trackage provided colorful variety, particularly in the 1970's into the 80's. My earliest attempts to recreate these operations in model form happened when I occasionally took over my father’s steam era HO layout with original Athearn GP-9’s painted in both B&M and CV. For that, I’m forever grateful and fortunate to share the hobby with my father, Ray Schofield. Thanks Dad! Well, fast forward 30 years and two layouts later, I’ve finally had an opportunity to recreate those teenage memories on a layout of my own. My interest in the Conn River Line remained, but I’ve narrowed those operations down to the CP Rail’s Newport and Lyndonville Subdivision in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdown. While this eliminated CV's through train operations and shared trackage that run south of White River Junction, it still allowed me to include B&M run through power and also the possibility of CV operations on the Richford Branch, which interchanged with CP Rail at Richford, VT. I'm continuing this blog to share my experience building the layout to date as well as share photos related to railroad operations across Vermont. I like the idea of sharing photos and ideas rather than a discussion platform, simply because my time to devote to the hobby is limited and I'd rather spend it building. My first post will be some recent construction on a section of layout representing a high bridge across the Missisquoi River in North Troy, VT. 📷 https://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/sites/model-railroad-hobbyist.com/files/20210627_103336.jpg" target="_blank"> 📷 Moderator: Moved the linked images in-line.
