Masters of Hi-Rail

Highlighting the art of hi-rail modeling, these four articles feature some of the best examples of realistic O gauge toy train layouts that have appeared in Classic Toy Trains magazine. From John Shankland’s 44 x 46-foot Hi-Q layout depicting the 1950s and ‘60s Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, to Dave Jacobs’ 6 x 10-foot Serendip & Western logging railroad, their experience and shared techniques will be a valuable aide to building your own hi-rail layout. You’ll also see the ultimate realistic details on Joe Lesser’s Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, as well as Bill Spaulding’s depiction of the Pacific Northwest. 31 pages
