Allen Keller’s Great Model Railroads Volume 50

The Argentine Industrial District Railway of Chuck Hitchcock is his answer to the question “Is it possible to outgrow a famous 30 year old layout?”. His former Santa Fe Argentine Division was famous as one of the first layouts to be operated in a prototype manner. Yet Chuck and his operators knew there had to be more. Since he really enjoys switching industries, he decided a layout could be built without a mainline, making him again a pioneer in operation. The 54 x 26 foot HO railroad represents a Santa Fe line around Kansas City in 1963. All trains are operated within yard limits without a dispatcher. He will show you how to lay track without spikes, add signs to urban buildings, and create switch lists from waybills. 59 minutes.
