WELCOME! Don't hesitate to ask any questions, there is a lot of knowledge here.
I'm going to venture to speculate that your layout is based on the Southern Pacifics Tehachapi Pass? And from the cars in the scene the era is 70s/80s?
HMMmmm... how can you tell?

WOW! Your modelling is amazing.
Please do not be a stranger in these forums.

Eugen, nice modeling I'm partial to the transition era and HO scale, but you can't beat good modeling with great scenery regardless of scale...
Switzerland? Hmm, that's a long way from southern California! If you are looking for a couple of good reads about the SP try John Signors books I have four, Tehachapi, Donner, Shasta 1, and Shasta 2 all are great reads a bit on the high end in pricing but are well worth it to a fan and modeler of the SP... hope to see more of your work around here.

If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough!

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
ATSFGuy Do you have any favorite locomotives/roadnames you'd like to share? I'd love to see some pictures of your train collection.

Given that the store is labeled "Caliente", pretty safe bet.

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.
Good stuff, Eugen. Please show us more!

Welcome!
I also model SP so that scenery is familiar from all of my prototype research...
Eugen:
