MR&T Stateline Layout in N Scale

Subscribers of trains.com can see the first video introducing the 5'x12' N Scale project layout. 

Have you seen it?
I'm looking forwards to the series!

I did think an interesting point, from their perspective, was that the Canadian Canyons layout wasn't very good for photography.

I hadn't really given it much thought before.  Their HO reviews use the MR&T, which makes a lot of sense.  So, their N scale review photos and so on tend to use their most recent N scale project.  The desert one they did a few years ago is looking a little long in the tooth.  Planning from the outset to use the layout for review photography is curious.  Makes me wonder if they'll set out to do specific planning to make for good little photo vingettes.

While I do not write reviews, I do plan my layouts and projects for photography.

Photography is part of Model Railroading for me. The two go hand-in-hand together and one interest supports the other.

Some hobbies just go great together.

I look forward to the series.
