The Railroad Shutterbug
Here is the first look at my new layout... the Olympic Peninsula Railroad. It is a freelanced HO scale railroad that is set in western Washington in 1975. The modeled portion of the railroad is Port Townsend. The railroad serves a paper mill, a scrap metal shipper, an export grain elevator, a packaging manufacturer, a cold storage company and a brewery.
The layout is 9'6" x 6'0" and sits 5' above the floor (to make room for shelves and other storage below). Current power is a Digitrax Empire Builder DCC system.
Operations see two trains per day coming into Port Townsend - the Mill Job and the Port Townsend Local. The mill job switches the 4 tracks in the mill while the local switches all other customers.
Most of these buildings are stand-ins that I've borrowed from a friend. All trains originate/terminate in staging behind the mill.
The first 3 photos are of the Raven Pulp & Paper mill area.
