Currently The BNSF and CSX loops are up and running on the grand kids layout. The outer loop for the Norfolk Southern Railway is still on the wish list and I need everything to make it operational I have most of what I need on hold at Mountain Town Hobbies in Mt. Pleasant Michigan.
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.

I Might Down Size The Grand Kids Layout
I was thinking I might have three mainline tracks on the grand kids layout. Now I am starting to think that 2 mainline tracks might be enough. The debate as it exists now is which line will I eliminate. My choices are BNSF, CSX, or Norfolk Southern. So far I have not made a decision. they all interest me. BNSF seems to be the most likely candidate. The locomotive I have is a cheeper Bachmann and it uncouples often Plus it is the only railroad in the mix that does not go through Michigan.
