Looking for info on a 4 x 8 layout from 5 or 6 years ago
Posted by gsaukrapids on Thursday, January 25, 2018 4:38 PM

I was at a hobby show in Chicago 5 or 6 years ago and someone had built a 4 x 8 layout to show that a small layout can be done to a high standard. I think it was published in MR later in the year. Only things I remember were the table was walnut, it had a barn raising diorama and I think it might have been an Eastern RR maybe PRR. Any ideas on what issue it was published in and any other info would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.

That sounds like Dave Methlie's Stoney Creek HO 4X8 introduced in the January 2006 MR. The series continued for a few more issues that year.

Thank you Byron, that is exactly what I was looking for.  It was back a few more years then I remembered. It is possible it was built in 2006 and I didn't see it person until later, tough getting old:)  Thanks again!
