Model Railroading > Photos on Grand Road LayoutDate: 11/29/16 16:57 Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: grandroad My friend Dean Dickerhoof just received a new Kato N-Scale FEF (4-8-4) freight version. He let me take some photos of it on my layout.
1. Exiting a tunnel behind the Terror Creek Depot. 2. Climbing behind the Terror Creek Depot. 3. On the big curve above Terror Creek. There is more. Paul Brennecke Golden, CO    Date: 11/29/16 17:02 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: grandroad 4. The big 4-8-4 leaving Terror Creek with 40-ft reefers.
5. Photo taken from a bridge abutment of the FEF on the Terror Creek deck bridge. This photo was taken using a first surface mirror since there is no way to get the camera in this location with out breaking all the trees off. 6. The FEF spliting the signals at Terror Creek Two more Paul Brennecke Golden, CO    Date: 11/29/16 17:08 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: grandroad Finally, a couple of shots of the Grand Road.
The first is of Amtrak #6 , also on the big curve above Terror Creek, and last but not least the DNROEX (Denver to Roseville Expedited) splitting the signals at Terror Creek. Thanks for looking.

Nice job!

A really nice layout ... and a Great series of images capturing the "feel" ... You did bridge the gap between modelling and the reality of days gone by ... Cheers, Odyssey Evergreen, CO Date: 11/29/16 22:35 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: DynamicBrake Paul, thanks for sharing some really nice shots of your exceptionally detailed layout. Oh, the 4-8-4 isn't bad either.

Ed Date: 11/30/16 15:47 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: herronpeter Paul,
Did I see this layout in the "Model Railroad Craftsman" I was browsing in the grocery store this morning? I didn't read it, only looked at pictures. I'm amazed to learn it's N scale. Great job............. Peter Date: 11/30/16 15:52 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: superchief73 Always great to see this layout! I would love to visit in person as i have since moved to Castlerock Co

Date: 11/30/16 20:30 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: Helo-Mech Fantastic layout Paul, I still have the MR issue that it was featured in some years ago. Didn't realize this was N scale until I caught it in the captions. Very nice work! The UP Northern is one beauty model.
Mike N. Date: 11/30/16 22:41 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: upheritage6 Nice stuff Paul!
Too bad I got out of N scale and went to HO. I'd definitely like to see your layout! Noah. Posted from Android Date: 11/30/16 23:38 Re: Photos on Grand Road Layout Author: Coalca Really an incredibly realistic layout. Nice work! You can sense the sheer time that was taken to create all the fine details.
