Title: The Clearwater and Little stone RR
Post by: EricQuebec on August 30, 2018, 05:08:19 PM
Hi everybody,
I open this thread to present my father layout.
It's a freelance layout called «The Clearwater and Little Stone RR».
at this time, the layout is still in progress. More than 90 % of the building are scratchbuild.
I will post more pictures with the new improvement on this layout. Please be patient.
