Description:    I began my 5′ x 9′ Lionel 027 Layout in February 2006. The track plan is based on a feature article in the December 2003 issue of Classic Toy Trains Magazine. The final photo is the current layout in May 2013.

  1. CORRECTION— on the last post, the feature article on the above layout appeared in the
    November 2012 issue of Classic Toy Trains magazine

  2. In the video description I forgot to add that a feature article on the layout above appeared in the
    November 2013 issue of Classic Toy Trains Magazine. Back issues are available.

  3. I love this, you did a great job. I'll bet you are still planning the next phase. When I did my layout all my daughter would say is "spreading out to the walls, hey Dad!" Fun stuff.
