Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

To get 2021 started on the right track, we've got some inspiring model train photos to share from social media. Just click on the links below, and you’re sure to find an idea or two for your next project. You can also share some shots of your latest scenes and models on our Instagram and Facebook pages.


Homeward Bound
A clean fire and a short train will see this local returning home on time today! An early era can be a great choice for a layout, with smaller cars and locos, and a wide variety of operations and trackside facilities. Train Life takes us back to the 1890s with this excellent scene!
Pit Stop
A switcher tops off its fuel at Williamsville on this superb model railroad. Click on the white arrow to see more of the scene, and be sure to follow @mopacmike on Instagram to find more images of his HO scale Missouri Pacific.
The Other Diesel Fleet
Not every diesel on the railroad has couplers! Modern maintenance fleets rely on all types of highway trucks and off-road equipment to get the job done. Darin Umlauft shares this action shot along one of his HO modules.
A Busy Corner
There’s a lot of action at this city’s elevated commuter station. The Chevy Impala taxi cab, General Motors “New Look” bus, and Amtrak Amfleet coach set this HO scene firmly in the 1980s. Thanks to @martintakespics92 for sharing this image of his railroad.
Night Shift
While the rest of the city may have quieted down, there's no rest for the railroad. The humid night air is filled with stop-and-go sounds as a GP7 digs in to move another cut of cars in this scene by @santafemodelrailroad.





We hope you enjoy these scenes and discussions as much as we enjoy bringing them to you! Check out our newest announcements in the recent New Product Express video.
