Title: Member HugoBasson's layout
Post by: BigEd on January 20, 2017, 07:58:07 AM

Me and Evert went for a visit last night to Hugo's layout. The last time I visited him he still modeled Marklin 3 rail. Since then he upgraded to American HO  :peep: :stir:

The layout is in a hiatus due to a future house move, but is completely operational and lovingly so too! I took just a few pics - Hugo can show some more of the closeups.

They have a operations setup and have weekly meetings and operations. Very nice!!!

Njoy the pics :thumb:
