These are are photos of our 2nd layout. It is 8 x 16 with Atlas track min/max curve of 0-54 powered by Z-4000 running with DCS. The layout is in our basement. We are probably about 2 years into the layout. I am more surprised by my 12 year old son's patience(lol)! He is the idea man, while I game plan and run the alleged budget that we have or don't have. hahaha. With all layouts there are somethings we wished we did or didn't do but, we will be wiser for the next one in the distant future. We have Rail King engines Premier Engines and Lionel Legacy engines. We are from Long Island, so we have Lionel H16-44, Rail King 0-6-0 B Switcher, Rail King 2-8-0 Long Island Sunrise with passengers sets from Long Island and frieght. My sons favorite is the Rail King Sante Fe F3 while I prefer the Premier U30C CSX and the GP35 Burlington from Lionel. You can tell we use a lot of the same grass,trees and other supplies throughout the layout. (budget concerns)lol.
