Thank you!

Some of my Moon Township, USA layout …

Are these, perhaps, what you had in mind and invited?

A couple of favorites:

Here’s some pics of my Customs I’ve build or re-stored. The Boxcars are All Nations. The switcher is a old Lionel I Custom Painted and decaled. The Mack B81 is a Don Mills kit. The White W22 is a Custom Speccast I repainted and decaled with a Berkshire Valley trailer.

Always liked this one from the old layout......

Circa 1999.....

I think all of the above photos are either spectacular, or charmingly heart-warming.

There's something about the lighting in this photo that draws me to it:

I would love to see the contributions of our award winning cinematographer, Scalerail (Don), on this topic.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!  I just sent you an email about the second photo!

This is one of my latest scenes.

Here are two of my favorites....one serious and one not so. TJ

Terrific photos guys, it's always great to see others layouts, you can always find inspiration in what others have done or are doing.  One such layout is that done by FarmerJohn, I wish he would post more of his layout for all to see.  Johnny, your layout is looking fantastic.  I really love the "end of line" country style station and it shows a lot of thought went in to that scene.

Thanks to all from the Armpit of Texas, you guys keep my hopes and dreams alive and well.

These two oldies remain my favorites:

To everyone that submitted, thank you and your layouts are all beautiful. Whether you model realistic trains, tinplate, or postwar, everyone has an awesome set up and we appreciate the participation. If you didn't get picked this time around, don't worry as Im sure we will do a similar contest in the near future.

So many great images from everyone!

And of course this classic of all of us at one tome or another in our layout building careers.

Okay, here are some of my favorites:

Dave, have you had time to run your trains now that your back to the real world? LOL

Lee, those are some great pictures! But then again its pretty easy when you have a great looking layout!

So many awesome shots, afraid I couldn't come close to any posted so far. But these are my favorite on my layout.

There are so many wonderful displays of great model Railroads. This will be a thread to remember....Leapin Larry’s Loonel Lines Railroad....Simply fun to run. Rolling Thunder....

Nonsense, Josef. Your layout and photos look great! Don't be so hard on your work.

And at the club:

My Toy Train, Classic Lionel.

All good shots, but I really like this one. I've always had a soft spot for the ubiquitous Atlas switch tower. the rest of scene looks great, too!

John C, Now you have us craving more! Don't leave us hanging. Do show us more. That is spectacular!

This is a picture of my Christmas train and CV 1979 USCG GP7 sitting side by side on my layout. 

Have a good day,

GREAT shots!

Matt noted this layout in the past-tense, so it no longer exists?

What is/was the story here? I'd never heard of a MILW 'Lines West' layout in 3-rail like this before...
