K Street Yard

A Milwaukee Road HO switching layout set between the late fifties to early seventies. Fictional location in the north of Spokane, Washington State.

Because of competition from the Burlington Northern and Great Northern the mainline to the yard was never built, instead it had to rely on the original steeply graded line which threads its way between the buildings. This makes for complicated movements to spot loads in the correct location.

The boards are recycled from a previous club layout. The buildings are a mixture of Walthers and Bachman kits, with some recycled buildings from other layouts.

The buildings have all been modified and not built straight from the box.

This is a club project, built by Eric Cains and Graham Broad of the C&SMRC.
