A model railroad that is based in my hometown of the Los Angeles area. Nice! I really would like to see this layout when it is completed(with scenery). Wendell

LNRR, as an American, I cannot agree with you more. The mainstream paper magazines here in The States show a lot of track plans with too many turnouts in it. Most Americans will support a Timesaver layout but they will frown when they see a Inglenook layout. Building trains on a Inglenook layout is prototypical! I had just talked to a professional railroader today about switching a yard. He told me that the railroad builds a train with cars in chronological order of delivery. Americans need to look at the prototype in building their layouts instead of building a "puzzle" layout. Wendell Idaho, USA

Mal, you have done a really great job with your Marlborough Branch layout. I like the second version of your layout without the runaround track. Keep up the good work! I wish the paper magazines here in America would feature more small layouts like yours. Wendell Idaho, USA

298, that is good you are building a Inglenook layout off of a paper mill from the Washington Northern Railroad layout. The WN is one of my favorite bedroom-sized layouts that Model Railroader has featured. Wendell

As always, I enjoy seeing pictures of your Chicago-based layout here in The States. Keep up the good work in model railroading! Wendell

Nice BNSF layout representing my hometown of the Los Angeles area, Dan! I love it! Wendell

There are a lot of paper mills in the Pacific Northwest region of North America(Idaho, Oregon, Washington State, and British Columbia). Wendell

I know that I am late to this thread(I had just started a new account to this website about a week ago), but I want to say that I really enjoy all of the small layout examples on this thread. I had just built a 4-3-2 N scale Inglenook layout with a switching lead capacity of one locomotive and two cars. I am using six cars on the layout. Wendell Idaho, USA
