Empire 2 Line

This layout was and still is being built by Florida Garden Railway Association member Byron Custer. He invited members to view his layout after a local swap meet. Byron uses all SS track and mostly #6 switches. There are several ponds, trestles, bridges and more in store in the future. There is a short clip of a pond that has no track around it which will part of a large extension to the layout. Byron estimates that once the mainline is completed, it be roughly 1500 to 200 feet long. As you can see, he likes to runs trains of prototypical length at prototypical speeds.

Thanks for having us over Byron! It was fun.

The description should read mainline of 1500 to 2000 ft when completed.
