Dave Plourde's S Hirail layout in East Longmeadow, MA.

One of the newest features to Dave's layout is this cascading waterfall. The realism is remarkable and blends right into the existing scenery.

 

Here's a good close up shot of the coal dump at the far center end of the layout.

This HO Light and Power Co. by Korber is quite suitable to "S" and found on many and S scale pike. Dave uses the HO version. There is also an O scale version that other S gaugers will use. Dave said that he had a good deal of difficulty fitting the windows on the HO kit. The kit is also made of resin and builders should be cautioned to work in a well ventilated area and/or wear a respirator when filing or sanding resin parts. Nevertheless, this is an outstanding building,and fits nicely on an S scale pike.
