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

Photos and text by Craig S. O'Connell

A long freight heads into the curve amongst lush vegetation and industrial structures.

 
Here's the American Flyer Seaboard Coaler. Note how Dave has carefully blended the tinplate structure into his highly detailed and otherwise scale layout. This, essentially, is what the best of the hirailers can achieve by using elements of all that S gauge has to offer.

 
The final shot in this hirail portrait...Note the detail and fine trackwork. Dave is meticulous in his scenic talents...note the fallen tree, the stumps, etc...
Here's one of the best hirail S layouts you'll find and it's packed into a corner of one room.

Excellent work, Dave!
