In a way, this image sums up much of our club layout, a mountain railroad with a long, sinewy mainline. This is the newest part of our layout, a rebuilt Horseshoe Run Grade. In July 2006, we removed the original 3% grade to rebuild with a longer and easier right-of-way. The new Horseshoe Run Grade is now double tracked and brings our railroad down the mountain on a 2% grade.
This image was taken after several work sessions. The mainline is now ballasted and scenery forms are being installed. |
