CB&Q and AT&SF in Northern Colorado is the emphasis
on this large 35'x40' HO railroad. Multi-cab lash-ups
and long trains are frequent on this layout which
features three yards, one of them primarily for reefers.
A coal mine, diesel facility and other assorted
industries are in evidence. Mountains and 1,000' of
track provide a setting in which trains can appear and
disappear seemingly at will. Hidden yards below the
layout provide storage for several trains.
