My 10'-by-5' model railroad is complete on 99% of the table area, so I decided that it's time for a video... The engine is a Lionel Legacy ten-wheeler 4-6-0 model of New Haven #815. With four New Haven box cars and a caboose, this is one of the longer trains that I run on this small layout. The engine has very realistic sounds to which the video does not do justice.

Wow, MELGAR... you certainly packed a lot of interest into 10’x5’!!! While your “tall” Supply Co. building is amazing, the passenger station at the start of the video is absolutely magnificent. Is that a kit or another of your own designs???

Thanks Paul.

It is a model of the station in Phillips, Maine on the Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes Railroad which was 2-foot narrow gauge. I built it from a kit by Banta Modelworks when I began work on the 10'-by-5' layout in 2014. I'm also adding a 46-second video which better shows the layout and the New Haven 4-6-0 ten-wheeler engine and freight train. The average speed of the train as shown here is 21 miles-per-hour.
