Below are lists of most of the many layouts in our area, including scale(s) and publications, classified into 3 groups: Clubs and Museums, Indoor Home Layouts and Garden Railways. Over 85 layouts have an attached photo collage. Click on the underlined bold name links to see those pics. All photos are by John Burchnall except some by EnterTrainment Junction, Tom Patterson, Randy Kerka and Jim Rollwage in their respective layout collages, plus a Cinder Sniffer photo by Ruth Anne Burchnall.
Our Division 7 Video Team is documenting the incredible EnterTrainment Junction (EJ) indoor G-scale model railroad and family entertainment facility with both video and still photography. As part of that effort, John Burchnall has compiled a slide show of 120 of his photos of EJ. You can view those at the bottom of this page. A convenient slide viewer there runs automatically at 2 seconds per slide (4 minutes total) or manually if you like.
