www.smarttinc.com presents . . . A run from Chicago past the industrial northeast to the mountains of upstate New York is the theme of this New York Central based S Scale model railway. Above the city streets, trains rumble over Chicagos famed EL bridge on their way towards the oil refineries and rail yards near Gary, Indiana.

Continuing eastbound trains head into the mountains of northern Pennsylvania and upstate New York. A sleepy town provides a way-station for weary travelers before they continue their journey, skirting along deep canyons while crossing a multitude of bridges with rivers raging below.

Operations on this dual-track mainline with hidden staging tracks is a source of never-ending pleasure. High Balling with ultra long trains on this extended track plan design helps recreate the heady days when railroading and rail-fanning was at its peak.

Meanwhile below the surface, an O-scale subway rumbles through three super-detailed stations based on the Chicago CTA prototype. Passengers can surface into the O scale Chicago city street.

  • Do you know of any books about model railroading that you would recommend for a novice builder?

  • @dwarrren9 To answer your question, you pretty much won't go wrong with most of the stuff put out by kalmbach books, the publisher of Model Railroader magazine. They have a 76 year history of publishing on this topic in their mags so there's a lot of wisdom to draw on there. Other than that, the internet is a great resource. Join some forums and read the threads.

    Good Luck,
