Hey! Its the Columbia Gorge Model Railroad Club!

I enjoy watching all the videos.

Nice work!

What code is the track?

Looks lower than 83.

Thanks for the good words. All of our track is code 100, even the logging branch. The main focus of our club is the annual open house in November, making reliable operation the first order of business. We probably could get by with a smaller-sized rail, but it's unlikely that we'll relay track any time soon. The next big projects are new control panels and DCC.

Wow you all run THAT layout on DC??

man talk about track blocking! You will be very happy with DCC I can assure you.

Keep us updated, as I admire the layout & hope to see more!

The logging branch is my favorite part of your layout and the Bend branch. You guys have the gorge going the wrong way are should i say on the wrong side of the river. Buts its cool .

Thanks for the comments. The logging branch is a favorite with members also. I wish we could be more faithful to the prototype, but space always forces some compromises.
