The Great Lakes Central Loop

Work has begun on the creation of a Great Lakes Central loop. I am temporarily using Bachmann Steel EZtrack until I can replace it with Nichol Silver EZtrack. I have one locomotive in running condition and another one in for repair at Brasseur Electric Trains in Saginaw Michigan. I might need to replace the transformer I am using. I am hoping to get 4 undocorated hoppers for fathers day that I can paint and decal with GLC markings. The rolling stock I am currently using I have borrowed from the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay layout.

My Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Layout


My layout displaying the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway is complete. It is running on a 22 inch radius track using Bachmann EZTrack. I plan to run it along with the layout for the Great Lakes Central Railroad which is still in the development stage. The plan is to run it on 18 inch radius EZTrack. So far I have the Locomotives and some of the streight track. I still need to get the curved track and the rolling stock necessary to complete the freight train.
