Model Railroading > Another mall layoutDate: 11/26/21 05:15 Another mall layout Author: Bob3985 Starting this weekend thru New Years the Sherman Hill Model Railroad Club will have their traveling layout set up in the mall along with their regular one.
We worked out a deal with the mall to set our traveling layout up in a vacant store space near our regular space for the holiday season. And one of our members will be operating his Christmas train for the season. Bob Krieger Cheyenne, WY Date: 11/26/21 08:09 Re: Another mall layout Author: FiveChime Photos would be nice. I know you folks have some older toy trains. Any thought in using the additional space to run those?
Something us old people remember during the holiday season is seeing the American Flyer & Lionel rushing around in the department store displays. Regards, Jim Evans Edited 1 time(s).

There are the bump trolley and hand cart that change direction when they hit the bumpers and other accessories that operate with the push of a button.

Also shown are a couple of the awards won by the layout and the sign in honor of Lyne Nystrom, who was a longtime member of the club and a member of the UP Steam Team. As you can see, the yard allows for the setup of longer trains and allows access to both sets of mains.
