Brian Enarson shares updates with his S scale layout: “American Flyer vintage 1955 is now operating in my man-cave. Track is original Gilbert American Flyer. 80% of buildings and accessories are original Flyer. Engine is new. Rolling stock is vintage 1955. City buildings are original Plastic Village.”  His Z scale layout is now operational at their home in Las Vegas.  See both layouts on our website HERE   

New member Steve Lorraine is constructing a large 2-level HO layout and shares the track plan drawings and the latest construction photos HERE.

Larry Schneider shares videos on the train-wreck sequence in “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning”.  Videos show the behind-the-scenes production with miniatures (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMldILK6fSE) as well as the finished footage we see on-screen (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah0OkcuI0sg).
 
Recently I attended the 2025 Rocky Mountain Regional Convention in Durango.  Click HERE to see the video of our Galloping Goose trip to Rockford, photos of our trip on D&SNGRR to Silverton, yard tour photos, and layout tour photos.
