Railtown, USA on the BS&R Model Railroad in Virginia

Displaying model train photos is probably the most exciting section of this entire website.

This is the place where we can show off and brag about the great work that we’ve done and show other model railroaders what we’ve been up to.

Also, we can be inspired by what others have done and strive to make our own layouts even better as a result.

My Layout Photos

The following photos are scenes taken from my own freelanced N scale layout based on the Pocahontas Roads in the Appalachian Mountains circa 1948-1952 when steam was still going strong. My version of the prototype is called "Pokie Roads" and serves as a division of my newly expanded larger layout, now called the Blue Ridge and Southern. You have already seen a smattering of these photos used to illustrate other pages on this site; but here are several of them all together in one slideshow...

Even more BR&S photos here...
