Overview of the Mississippi, Alabama & Gulf
Cliff PowersDescription
Allen Keller is with Cliff Powers to discuss his railroad. Cliff was going for a laid back rural atmosphere in his layout. The railroad has its own building and consists of two decks with staging on the bottom and the Mississippi section above. When the top deck is completed, the railroad will enter New Orleans from a double track helix. The helix allows trains to travel from staging to the planned upper deck without entering the Mississippi scene. The minimum radius is 27 inches and the track is code 83 on L girder benchwork. The visit starts at Slidell, Louisiana in the next video in this series, where the train has emerged from temporary New Orleans staging.
