Another Charlie Woodword building. Many of the buildings on the layout are named for club members. In this case, Brett MacKay, a avid Santa Fe modeler, trapped in Pennsy Land. Brett loves show season as he can bring in his Santa Fa passenger trains and run them on the railroad. |

The Curved Narrow Gauge Trestle |
Description: |
This is largest span on the railroad and has seen no activity in over two years. We hope to have the narrow gauge up and running again before the end of 07. Blackstone K27s are on the way and need somewhere to stretch their legs. |

Pequea Creek |
Description: |
This is one of my favorite areas on the railroad. It is a shifting area with much of track weaving in and out between the buildings. If you look closely at the water area, the "white pipe" sticking up out of the water next to the row boat is a periscope with bulging eys, checking out the bikini glad girl in the rowboat. |

Staging Loops |
Description: |
This area was added to the railroad in the past two years. The track curving to the left, mid picture, is the orginal mainline loops. The loops in the back are new and give us the opportunity to operate the railroad as a point to point. It is an area that is a GREAT addition to the club layout!! Good job guys!! |

Nucular Sub in Black River |

Just how that sub got into the river is still a mystery, and I doubt it is deep enough for the sub to get under that bridge. I guess the captain has some explaining to do!! |
