Rockaway Southern HO Scale Model Railroad
Posted on
jtrs.borail.net My HO Scale model railroad. The Rockaway Southern is a freelanced North-South bridge line running between Plainfield, NJ where it intercahnges with the CNJ and Lehigh Valley to Denville and Dover, NJ where it interchanges with the Eire Lackawanna. A branch line also extends the railroad north to Sparta, NJ where it interchanges with the NYSW. Located in my basement, the layout is over 10-years in the making and is set c. 1964. info: e-mail tele68@verizon.net

Understood about the sound module. I must say that your track and ballast work is excellent. Also great work on the ground scenery. Definetly resembles the eastern U.S. BTW: Are you a member of the Kalmbach Model Railroader Forum?

Just a cheap CMI sound module, wasn’t supposed to be a real horn sound. That was made in the days long before digitial sampling was invented….thanks for commenting anyway!

Hi.
What type of horn is that sounding? Doesn’t quite sound like the Nathans and Leslies I’m familiar with.

If you look at a box car passing it, its only about 25′-30′ feet high, very common site along the Pennsy NE Corridor built with those same sand stone blocks, and BTW, I happen to be a graduate Civil Engineer and didn’t you ever hear of modeler’s license wne it comes to model railroad’s??? Thanks to all the others who’ve posted positive comments on my layout this past year…

That first brick retaining wall must be at least 150′-0″… What civil engineering firm did you contract for that miracle???
December 5th, 2011 - 13:32
Another mighty fine looking layout
December 5th, 2011 - 13:34
Once again, thanks to all who have left such nice comments on my layout. Working on a track plan and some new videos soon…

flexitrack is probably what most, if not all, professionals use. They might use some fixed pieces here and there, but most of it is flexitrack
