I realize that's a pretty old layout. I've done some searching the last few days and haven't found much, other than a 2-page writeup and video of it. http://www.gothamcitysub.com/pages/vic1.htm page 2 there has the video. I currently have a huge 9X14 L-shaped layout that I'm tearing down...

Obviously still a lot left. I'm gonna have to do something different with the grass. All I had for static grass was light green, and I had already sprinkled out a nicer looking summer green around the curve. I'll probably pick up something matching and add it on top of the static grass by...

I'm trying to decide if I like this or not, before I cut the track and make it more permanent. The road leading into this will be coming from the downtown area, and I kind of figured this would be a good dead-end to the street. Traffic will go in between the office and maintenance shop, I...

I'm about to pour the Magic Water in this pond, and was wondering if you guys would do anything different first. I'm not so sure on the color. I had an Ocean Green, but it seemed to light. I mixed all kinds of other colors in to get what's on there now. Thought about adding some black in the...

I've been waiting for the Walthers 130' DCC turntable for a few months. It was supposed to be out at the end of October, but once again it was delayed. I'm not finding anything else out there right now. Does anyone know where I can find something similar? DCC doesn't matter, I'd prefer to...

Hello! Just joined up to read all the good stuff to help building my HO scale railroad. I've been posting on another pretty good forum already, but it never hurts to see both sides. I'm building an HO scale L-shaped layout that's about 9x5 in one direction, and 14x5 in the other direction...
