An afternoon at the Tehachapi Loop layout | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

YvesOGR Forum Member

Folks,

the following are some (not so good) pictures quickly taken during an operating session at Jerry's layout in Cary. We were five people and operated three trains on the main line: A consist of tank cars (oil delivery during the WW II) pulled by a Westside Virginian Triplex, a consist of Reefers pulled by a Max Gray 4-8-4 ATSF engine and the 1937 Super Chief pulled by two Sunset F7 units. It was a delightful afternoon, courtesy of our host Jerry.

I hope you enjoy the scenery despite the poor quality of the pictures.

Yves

I agree. Looks a lot like Gary Schrader's place. Wish my SP steam looked that good. If I quit going to the airport every day . . .

I take it when you mention "in Cary", that is Cary, Illinois? I have heard there is a nice O scale layout up that way. Surprised it is not on the layout tours at the Chicago March Meet.

I thought that layout looked familiar, I had seen the 2015 GMR issue.
