Im making my layout from the Woodland Scenics N-scale Scenic Ridge Layout Kit. It is 3 feet by 6 feet and is made from the subterrain system.

As you can see it still nedds a lot of work. It needs paint, ballast, grass, and a little cleaning too.

Special Thanks to Corrie Thompson for this one.
Well here it is and i hope you like it. I look foreward to your comments. ;)
P.S. You can make the pictures bigger by clicking on them.
Good Start. Its actually an FA-1 not a PA. Ithink the aTSF GP is either a GP40 or a GP38.
Looks like you have a lot of good locos(PCM E8, 4-6-2, RS1) and a few starter set not so great but still nice ones (the other steamers, the F3, the GP, the F7's, the trolley, and the superbowl loco.) Anyways, good start.
Thanks, I couldn't remember the name of the FA-1so i said the closest thing. The way my camera takes pictures doesnt realy look to good with the flash. The trains look better in person.
By the way, every time I do something new I'll post the pics on this topic. ;D
That looks pretty brilliant, I didn't know you could buy layout kits like that! May I ask how much it cost? ???
Not bad, are you going to get Percy, Henry, and James for your N scale layout too?

You can usually find them for about $300. You can go to http://woodlandscenics.com and look at the layout kits.

Total of making this layout would cost ...
track pack- $82.50
kit for layout:$498
Buildings: $198
reference from waltehrs.com
Actually, Woodland Scenics sells the kit for $300, the building se is only $70 at http://blwnscale.com and I used flex track and saved some money (although I bought it after I got the track pack which didn't work too well).
There ya go... ;D
Well since I have been away for a while I haven't seen this. 1. 3 of the pics don't show up on my computer. 2. Can you post more picks of your Thomas? It may sound like I am beging negitive but I am really impressed. Good job. ;)
Thanks. I dont know why the pics dont show up but go on imageshack.com and search PRRThomas11.
