Photos of Layout Tour sponsered by Mainline Hobby of Blue Ridge Summit, PA on 9/21/2013

Western Maryland Railway - Blue Ridge Div.  Brian Wolfe

I was only able to visit three of the many layout sites that were available on Saturday and on Sunday. 
This HO layout represents the Western Maryland Railway from Hagerstown, MD to York, PA in September 1970.  It occupies a 30 x 45 basement, with a crew lounge, workshop, and dispatcher's office.
























 

Waynecastle Central - Waynesboro Model Railroad Club.

This club has a large HO layout on the first floor, an N scale, a two rail O Scale, and a three rail O Gauge layouts on the second floor.  Something for everyone.  Generally open to the public at Christmas.

Some photos of unfinished track

Warren took these to compare colors and the static grasses he has applied.  These are not finished as track need ballast, weathering, and cleaning.  But does show a bit of the progress that has been made on the WM end of the layout.
