Coaling yard | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

BigS06OGR Forum Member

I have a small layout that I try to have a lot of scenery while running large scale engines. I just added this coaling yard and was thinking about submitting these to OGR magazine. I know the pig puzzle in the back ground needs to go.

The yard is nicely ballasted. You might consider a backdrop to further enhance your efforts.

Golden Gate Depot, Sunset Thirdrail offering, may be 15 years ago. There were a couple of added pieces, (independent/not from Sunset, concrete footings, and a dump house. There was discussion about the stairs not to scale. Model came complete, assembled, except for coal chute chains, in a display , open front box.

The coaling tower was made by Golden Gate Depot. The yard light is a old Marks tower. I want to add some figures and maybe a water spout.

How did you make your chain link fence?

I used corrugated cardboard along the back edge of the plywood that was glued on. Then I used just a woodland scenic chain link fence kit.
