Barry's Model Railroad

This is an accounting of my attempts at model railroads N scale and HO or OO. I find it to be a lot of fun. I concentrate my efforts on The New York Central, Ann Arbor, Pere Marquette, Chesapeake and Ohio as it relates to the Pere Marquette, Michigan Central Railroads and my own Salt Creek Railroad. I am also interested in the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway, the Great Lakes Central Railroad, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific, and BNSF. You are welcome to give me advice.

Fathers Day Is Almost Here

Just a few more days and it's Fathers Day. I have already dropped the hint that I would like to pick up the New York Central Express mail car that I ordered about a year ago. It has been sitting and waiting for me to pay for it for about a year. The people at Mountain Town Hobbies in Mount Pleasant Michigan have been great to hold it for me for all this time. This will complete my New York Central Passenger train on my HO scale layout.

My HO layout is nearing completion. The consists of the New York Central passenger train will end up as the following:

Alco PA, PB, PA locomotives
Express car
RPO
Baggage Car
2 paired window coach cars
Lounge Car
Dinning car
Observation/Lounge Car
2 Pullman Sleeper cars
Observation Car
