www.smarttinc.com presents . . . A nostalgic walk down memory lane is the prevailing idea behind the creation of this compact but superbly detailed model railroad layout. Taking a cue from Lionel trains of the post war era, this layout features Super-O track throughout, the prized toy train track of its day. Although this is a three rail layout running both Lionel and MTH trains, that is where the toy train aspect of this project ends. Scenery and structures on this layout are of award winning contest quality without compromise. Full interiors, entertaining vignettes, personalized signage, custom lighting, and sound effects, abound on this miniature treasure.

The adventure begins with a detailed homage to the Baites (Bates) Motel, where a nasty shadow lurks behind the shower curtain, and Mother rocks in her chair under the gloomy nightlight. Or if thats not your cup of tea, go two doors down to the C-D bar and grill, where all the miners from the Yours, Mine, and Ore Mining Company wash away the day.

See the ski slope, the li'l red school house, and the many charming industries, all guarded by the cop behind the billboard. Finally take a walk down Main Street where you can visit one of the many establishments, including the medical offices of Dr. Phil Goode, and Dr. Frank N. Stein.

Countless jokes and themes of personal significance are everywhere on this project bringing a smile and a thrill to all those who are in the loop.

  • Hi Popcorn12! The structures are mostly kits or kitbashed, with a few being scratchbuilt. The trees are available from a number of vendors, although this layout being built in the late 90's, probably not the same ones. The vehicles and train cars are all commercially available with some custom weathering done by us.

  • Cool. There's a lot of cool stuff on YouTube. Check out our other videos too! Enjoy!

  • As much a 'how to' on how to make a cool video as how to make a great railroad.

  • @DJinBTM Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
