Trinkle trains Amtraking again at Tim's Toy Trains

These were taken on the old Colorado Midland layout a Hotel redevelopment project destroyed.

The Crawford hotel destroyed?

Sounds like an interesting story, what happened?

Denver union station became a Hotel. The two layouts were destroyed in the basement to make meeting rooms. Our layout was there since 1935.

Before and after

For the thread I wanted to add his Superliner III consist a AMD units.

Erik,

 

Since Rick does not post often,   can you share the surrounding environment, here

I must have missed something , is this the location of the club, or Trinkles trains shop,

We see people going back and forth in the hall ways (some of the videos) , and somewhere along the way

of this venture, did you mention, there was a fee pay location for running trains. 

Just interested in the set up here ,  thanks

 

The o scale community around the Front Range is vast. Many layouts and locations all working together towards a community effort to run and maintain our fleets of equipment. Those of us that used to be Dsmr recently lost the layout at Union station and have found this new community a venue to maintain our hobby. We formed Colorado O Scale Modelers with this in mind. It's not just one module layout but a whole community of O scalers found around the state and even Nebraska. Timdude is one of many COSM members that has a rent to run layout in Lousiville, Jeff, Bob, and a few others have home layouts just the same as Rick is building a 6000 square foot plus Joint Line layout near Colorado Springs. It's all of us working together to build a friendly fun and enjoyable community of O scale modelers in Colorado and surrounding states!
