The Woodland Scenics kits include the materials to build the terrain.    Track packages (ATLAS) and building packages (DPM) and scenic materials are sold seperately. They  provide the raw materials and instructions to build a specific layout..  You don't have to follow the instructions. How you use the materials is up to you. 

The Kits are are the Scenic Ridge, the Grand Valley, the River Pass

Consider designing your own layout and  using  the Woodland Scenics Terrain System.  The materials are the same as in the kits.

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

wood scenics layouts
Posted by oarb00 on Wednesday, August 13, 2014 12:49 PM

I am considering building Woodland Scenics N scale Scenic Ridge layout as my first layout in about 25 years. It seems to me I remember there being 2 other layout packages that could be connected with it. Am I remembering this right and if so, what were they called and where might I look for one?

Also, I was thinking of eliminating the town area and building a small yard or more industrial sidings there and also eliminating the mountain and making a cut through a limestone deposit in it's place. If someone out there who has done this layout could offer advice, how difficult would it be to do that? I hate bury half this little layout in a mountain and really have no use for a town
