Ever want to bring your model railroading experience to the next level? Does the thought of running your layout like the real railroad get you excited? Well buckle in and get ready to join us as we explore running a model railroad just like the prototype. The Central Florida Railroad Modelers Club layout was designed for realistic railroad operations. In fact, our club has monthly operating sessions and visitors are welcome to join in, including you!
So, come join us in this new series as we start with the basics for prototypical running for any model railroad. Whether you want to model a short line or a Class 1 railroad, the basics still apply. Even if your layout doesn't have a yard and you just have a mainline and industries to switch, you can still run it like a real railroad or close to it! It all comes down to an understanding and your own creativity.
