People at Work on the Bedford Branch

More Photo's and a story

Three years ago, I decided to make a engine storage and repair facility in the mechanical room of the basement.  I would simply bring the layout through the wall near my work bench.  Well the project began to grow, and you know how it is one thing lead to another with the result seen below.

The Bedford Branch is a freelanced "N" Scale layout which primarily features the power and rolling stock from the Norfolk and Western Railroad from the period 1940 -1970.

The layout has three lines and was built to be an operational railroad.

Control of the railroad is provided through the use of a Digitrax Zepher system.
