Bill, if you are ever in the South, I highly recommend you try to visit Jerry's layout and Bob Hogan's. I doubt there are many S layouts any finer than these. The perfect opportunity might be the NMRA National Convention in July 2013 which will be in Atlanta. Bob Hogan's layout is already on the convention website. - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 8/24/2012 12:48:42 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Jim Kindraka was gracious enough to send me the hand out from Jerry Holmes’ layout. If I am reading it correctly his total mainline trackage is 223 feet which is 2) 111 feet long mainlines. That surprised me. My Podunk “ Nascar Oval” layout might be close to that. He also mentioned “Marcway turnouts ” which I have never heard of. Of the places that I missed by not going to the convention my guess would be Jerry’s layout was the best thing. The late John Craft would have been ecstatic to see it.
