'20's Inspired NYC/Chicago "EL" Layout

ElgauchoOGR Forum Member

In the process of building a complete toy-like "tin" layout, inspired by old 1920's/30's NYC/Chicago "EL" trains.

The layout will consist of old tin toy parts from that era as well like Gilbert Erector girders, Bilt E-Z construction tin pieces and Bing 0-gauge tracks. I'll later include old Tootsietoy sedans, coupes and Mack trucks for scenery too.

I don't have much room where I live, which explains the small scale of the layout. But that's just how I like it, small and toy-like.

Please take a look at my Flickr site bellow for all my photos in progress (*aswell as other toys from my collection) Thanks for looking!
