Thanks Karl for your comment.    Those are all great locomotives and run well on the layout. BTW, I installed sound decoders and speakers in those locomotives. In N Scale, sound decoders weren't routinely installed in N scale locomotives. The changeover started this year with a few companies doing factory installed sound installations.

Bob, wow! how many photographs do you have of your layout?

Good looking yard.

Thanks Curt. The 18 foot yard on the left side of the "new" JJJ&E is one of the main vocal points of the layout.

Marty:  Thanks for taking a look at the photo's of my layout. Over the eight plus years that this layout has been in existence, I've taken several thousand photo's in various formats.

A Full View Of About 1/3rd Of The Switching Yard With The Diesel Service Yard In The Distance. Operating and fully functional signals are an important feature of the Switching Yard as well as the entire layout. There are over 30 dwarf signals in the Switching yard which control the switches/turnouts as well as signal bridges and 3/2 block signals.

Working signals really make a visual impact on a layout.

Hi Bob:

I have new respect for N-Scale as I'm building about 10 N-Scale kits for Bar Mills Scale Models. Your layout is very nicely done and I really like all the neat structures. Keep up the good work.

Bob,
That photo really gives all of us an idea of how much time and effort you have put into your layout. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Curt. Working signals do make a big difference on a layout. It took many hours to get all the signals wired and fully operational. The block signals and signal bridges are on a time delay adding to the realism.

Thanks for your comments Karl. I've been working in N Scale for almost 18 years now. Before N Scale, I was in HO and O scale for over 40 plus years. I can still work in N scale at the tender age of 76.
