January 2024 N Scale Mountain Railroading in the Pacific Northwest

N Scale Mountain Railroading in the Pacific Northwest
Explore an impressive N scale layout by Jeff Sargeant. This freelanced layout based in 1958 is located in the mountains of Washington State and includes logging and mining operations. Jeff runs the Great Northern; Spokane, Portland, and Seattle; and his own freelanced railroads on the pike. You’ll enjoy seeing creative, detailed scenes. A railfanning video at the layout is included.
