Since my garage is hovering around 10 degrees and I cant get any of my major projects done out there, I decided to work on my model train layout. here are the details...
- N scale (1:160 scale)
- Denver Rio Grande centric

- top of the tunnel will serve as a display for my California Zephyr passenger set
- Lots of home brewed goodness
