In the beginning I created a railroad. I made it out of a wood table, screen wire, Plaster De Paree’. Times have changed. This time I used styrofoam for the base with cork roadbed on the top. I hand laid most of the track. Handmade 95% of the turnouts. I laughed at the foam at first then I realized it was, for me the easiest to make a mess and mistakes with. I can and have changed it several times and it goes back together pretty easy with its cool hot glue. The present layout started in the house in a spare bedroom, I moved it out to my former photo studio and it grew. I use the NCE DCC power system and JMRI for control of my railroad. I am going to go Dead Rail for several o f the smaller engines as they do not operate on the track too well. I.e. the switcher, Climax, Shay.
