This is some hand-laid N scale track in did 40 years ago.  I used code 55 rail and code 70 spikes.  I made my own ground throws:

LOL, never thought I would be using that shot again.  Scratchbuilt using styrene.  The ores were 3d printed at shapeways.  I am planning on using it as part of a logging camp, more here: http://nvrr49.blogspot.com/2013/09/logging-camp-cabins-outhouses-and-boat.html

Show me something logging related!
