Model Railroading > Tehachapi Pass Model Railroad Open HouseDate: 11/13/19 15:06 Tehachapi Pass Model Railroad Open House Author: tehachapi-dave Good evening, My father and I will be operating our outdoor model railroad this Saturday in conjunction with National Model Railroad Month tours here in the east. We have a large G Scale railroad depicting the Tehachapi Pass line in southern California. Trains of both the SP and Santa Fe will be running, and quite a bit of new power will be in the mix. The trains and motive power will reflect the Tehachapi Pass line as it would have appeared in 1995, with Warbonnets piloting hot intermodal trains of the Santa Fe, and older SP power lugging lumber drags south. This event is OUTDOORS, and weather pending, if it rains we will not be running (weather is looking favorable at the moment.) Please park on the street side opposite the house, and we hope to see you there. Details on address and time are here - http://modelrailroadopenhouse.com/modelschedule.html Layout website - https://thetehachapiloopingscale.weebly.com/ As a final note, several layouts in the Reading area will be open on the 16th, so if you'd like to make a day trip out of it, check the open house list and hit several great layouts in our area!

A couple of questions - who makes those locos and what scale? Alot of the G-gauge stuff I see look more like cartoons of locos than what you have. And how did you guys prepare the ground for the track? What's the gray "ballast"? Thanks, Jeff |
