Hi Neighbor!
thank you for all this work in sharing your layout! That is a very impressive video for the benchwork (still have to watch some others). What a great area to model. Our Leesburg troups have hiked all over that area and my boys and I would take the train from there to DC union station every chance we got. Go over to the museum in Brunswick. I think it has so much great history at Harpers Ferry along with Point of Rocks.
I am a recent convert from HO to O (trying to do both) and currently only have an oval to run my EM-1 and the capitol limited on but am trying to expand in my basement and planning a larger layout in our loft in NC that is being built. Just got a hold of the book on building O gauge layouts from here on the O gauge site and that was good information. I did L grid benchwork for HO and have done 1x4 and birch plywood on 2x4 48" saw horses for the oval. Your approach is much more in line with the book (compendium of backshop articles I think it is, dont have it with me to reference). This is all new to me so your videos and work are very helpful in figuring out what a next step layout in VA will be. Thank you for all the work it takes to share this!
BTW are there any clubs in out area?
