Brian Scace's O Scale Shelf Layout

[@JamesGregg-n6t]

I grew up in Skaneatles, NY and my father was very much into model trains. We had a collection of French rail cars, and many of his scenes were European villages in the Alps using paper mache for landscapes and home-made cardboard buildings. I wish I had known Brian was so interested in this passion; my father would have loved to see what Brian has created! I would love to hear from Brian if he feels so inclined.

He's got a beautiful layout there, Ryan. I hope to see it some day, thanks for sharing.

[@ryanexpresstrains8074]

Yes he does. Definitely worth visiting!

[@plunkervillerr1529]

That`s nice, no drugs or poop in the streets. We also solved that problem in Plunkerville, NO STREETS.

Ryan, thanks for the close up views of this layout. You provided a perspective I have not yet seen. I love seeing one the building Brian got from me, through a mutual friend, on his layout.

[@ryanexpresstrains8074]

Thanks Dave! Everything on his layout is easily accessible so I wanted to get as many close ups as I could. It’s a neat layout! The buildings, track plan, and scenery all work nicely together to create the look and feel of a terminal railroad, which is what Brian was going for. He nailed it.

Wonderful layout.

[@ryanexpresstrains8074]

Yes it is!

[@davidkoehler136]

would love to see the track plan

[@ryanexpresstrains8074]

I’ll see if I can get one from Brian.

[@davidkoehler136]

nice size layout

[@ryanexpresstrains8074]

It’s a great layout in a modest sized basement. Tons of operation scenarios.

[@davidkoehler136]

@@ryanexpresstrains8074 yup, you have a main line , switching, what more do you need

[@AndrewNeilFalconer]

O scale model railroads need at least one 35' long straight section, because the cars are very long.
