Its an Atlas loco

Nice layout, of course. Being a Southern Californian, my future layout will include palm trees alternating with mediterranean cypress trees along a small street parallel to the tracks, as where I was raised. Who is the mfg. of the palm trees? They look very authentic and detailed, unlike others observed.

The palm trees came from an architectural model supplier in London England callede 4 D models. They can be found on the internet. Another Uk company that does a very good range is called Sist Trees. They are also on the internet..

Unfortunately its quite a bit further away from Fort Myers than you might have hoped - its in South East England!

The layout is HO

KATO? OR SOMTHING ELSE?

Wow! Outstanding work on that station. No mistaking it for any other than Orlando.

I saw this layout in Model Railroader Magazine!!!!!!!

I think it was a Pikestuff kit. Not 100% sure as it was made some years ago.

@Waffles341 I'd seen this layout featured in ModelRailroad Magazine 3 or 4 years ago. The modeler along with the layout isn't located anywhere in Florida, or for that matter inside the U.S. This modeler along with this layout is actually across the Atlantic Ocean in the U.K. (Great Britian). It's amazing how some can model such detail being thousands of miles away from the actual place.
