I am starting a new thread on my layout since Photobucket disabled all the links to the photos in the previous thread. These are WIP pictures as of today. I'll update this thread as I make progress.
Three rail O started out as toy trains for boys to play with. The track is rugged and easily reconfigured for maximum play value. I've modified the trackplan a few times since I started this layout in January. Even when I was in HO and N I changed track after running trains finding that what looked good on paper wasn't always the best in reality.
It's a NYC Aerotrain. I believe it also ran on the Rock Island for a while. It's made by MTH Railking and a fun train, one of my favorites.
In Rock island possession, they ran Chicago commuter service. I'm assuming they ran on the tracks currently called the Metra Rock Island Line. Since Metra is push-pull with the Nippon Sharyo gallery cars, how was the Aerotrain turned around at the terminus stations? (And for that matter, how does Amtrak currently do it?)
