395 & Eastern Sierra Railroad

Welcome to the N-Scale 395 & Eastern Sierra Railroad — a fictional N scale model railroad inspired by decades of unforgettable memories, rich history, and the wild beauty of California’s Eastern Sierra mountains, meadows, canyons, streams and lakes.
For nearly 50 years, I’ve explored the June Lake Loop and surrounding High Sierra with my Dad and Grandfather during my youth and teen years. Those early trips planted a lifelong love for trout fishing, pine forests, aspen groves, dirt trails, and the mountain air that lives in your soul forever. Not only did my Dad and Grandfather lay the foundation of my passion for the outdoors, but they also instilled the love of model railroading. I remember the smell of saw dust, electrical shorts, and solder as I assisted in their HO scale garage train layout.
This railroad is a tribute to that love — reflections of the peaks, streams, and towns that shaped my life and continue to inspire my family today as we travel along highway 395.
