Hi. It's been sometime since I last posted on Big Blue. After building 2 small layouts based in Florida, it was time to look for something different.
Other than Florida, the only other US states I have been fortunate to visit are the New England states and New York state. I had always wanted to build a layout featuring some
'fall foliage'. As I don't have any power suitable for a New England layout , I decided to locate the layout in upstate New York where both CSX power and fall foliage can be seen.
The layout represents a small 'Transflo' transloading terminal with very basic facilities, a warehouse spur and a couple of team tracks all in a space of 5ft 3ins x 18ins plus hidden staging
I'll post more info later
