A Tribute to the Rock Ridge and Train City

Finally after a couple weeks of programming, after it's demise 18 months ago, a tribute to the Rock Ridge and Train City, a 4.5 x 8 layout. Lots of pics--the content is in links in the small left column.

I always liked that track plan. I think I've got 6 of those AHM kits you have on it.

Thanks Lothar. Frankly, I don't know where most of those kits came from--other than eBay.

Oops. I changed registrars and the site seems to be down.

We started building our layouts at about the same time, so in a way, they "grew up" together.  I always enjoyed seeing progress on the RR&TC.

I hope there will be room on your new layout for the TP-dragging preacher and Mongo.
