LGRS - Prince Edward Terminal Railroad - RICK & BARB
August 23, 2014
London Garden Railroad Society had it's annual open house on August 23rd. My dad and I jumped into car and drove to visit a selection of their member's layouts. I am going to feature some railroads that I took photographs of over the upcoming weeks (with the owners permission of course).
I had the pleasure of being welcomed into the home of Rick and Barb to see both their indoor and outdoor layouts
Outside, they had three trains travelling around and I could have spent hours listening to the click-clicking of the wheels on the track. They have an inpressive Campbell Soups train.
I was amazed at their basement layout. Previously, I had only seen point-to-point shelf layouts or large loops that monopolized an entire room. They used only a corner of their basement and managed to fit in everything you would dream of in a layout with a bridge, buildings, road crossings, sidings, industries and loops. The best part is that it is built on 4 ft high glass cabinets so you are at eye level with the action and the extra trains store underneath.
Thank You once again Rick & Barb for welcoming us into your home to see your wonderful train layouts!! Keep up the great work!!
