<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe first photo shows models set up on three levels which first points out that he must have had a pretty large layout with multiple tracks visible on the upper and lower level. Starting up top we have an ABA set of sand cast Schorr F-3s, on the bottom we have another AB pair on a passenger train led by a S-C baggage car, and in the middle we have two Super-Scale diesel switchers. Number 20 looks larger than number 12 to the extent that I would almost wonder if 20 is the S Scale version instead of the OO version? Note especially the cabs. Click on the photo for a closer view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Up at the front too we can see two Scale-Craft flat cars and get a sense of the trackwork which is nicely hand laid on Tru-Scale roadbed. I have not written much to date about Tru-Scale but it was a popular choice among operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe second photo shows essentially the same scene (note the backdrop) but from a bit different angle, with possibly the same AB pair of F-3s on a passenger train and a scratchbuilt or perhaps kitbashed 4-4-0 model on an older time passenger train. On the lower level, not very in focus, there seem to be at least two Hawk boxcars among those in the yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have more from the layout of Fred Schorr thanks to his son Ed, and I have other unpublished photos from the layouts of Bourassa, Moale, and others, be looking for this series to continue periodically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
