LCCA Visits Marty Fitzhenry's Home Layout

Al K.OGR Forum Member

Recently, the LCCA had the opportunity to meet with LCCA Member Marty Fitzhenry and Dotty to experience his fabulous home layout. Marty has a renown layout (featured in the national train magazines and in a prior issue of our club publication The Lion Roars) featuring an impressive catenary system. Thank you Marty and Dotty for your hospitality and sharing you home layout with our members.

LCCA members will have an opportunity to see this impressive layout in person if you sign up for the LCCA's July 19, 2015 Special Event.

The ride-along was very hypnotic! I think I saw Gumby's pal Pokey briefly. Great stuff.

As many times as I have been at Marty's layout this is the first time I have seen a cab view. Well done! Marty's layout is awesome to say the least!

Like Chris, seeing Marty's layout via "Cab view" adds a whole new dynamic to the detail on his fantastic layout.

That is a cool perspective to see the layout from. Lots of stuff there to see. I probably wouldn't make it past his control panel which I still drool over.

Thanks for sharing this and Conrats to Marty!

Thanks guys for your kind words. Thank you Al for the cab ride. Robert, it can all be accessed. A lot of time and planning was put into that. The layout will be 33 years old this July 2.

Like I have said many times, if you ever find yourself in my area, you are always welcome to visit and run trains.

I have had a few emails asking me about the Train America sign. Yes, it is the real deal. My good friend Mike Reagan gave it to me a few years ago in Ohio. I had the guys who worked with Mike at Train America sign it for me.
