Hello all

It's fun to run !

I'm fortunate to have a basement 22 x 29'.... shared with a furnace, washer/dryer, sink, replaced the tank water heater with tank-less to hug the wall for the outside 3rd rail shelf layout . Outside 3rd rail is from several old layouts dating late 30's-40's from NJ, there was enough track for 2 loops and several sidings . The center layout is 2 rail made in 1939 by Multiplex ... a sectional rail system .. a folded figure 8 . Very grateful to be the current owner of many Frank Ellison pieces to recreate his towns of Raymondale and Donaldson on the shelf layout .

here is a link to see the outside 3rd layout running

here is a link to see the 2 rail running

everything is still a work in progress... much more work needs to be done ...on everything ..but that is part of the fun ...hoping to add a trolley line and need to complete the outer loop on the shelf layout ..
Cheers Carey

I must say that I am happy that I posted this question in the 2 R forum.
I am getting to see model railroads that don't get shown here very often.
I may see them in OST but don't always make a name connection. As you
know, many used made-up names on forums and some know those.
Thanks to all and I hope for more responses.
