High Green
High Green A series on model railroad layout construction and design. Ian MacMillan will take us through the design and process on his HO scale Amoskeag Northern.

Easy Methods for Flawless Handlaid Track and Turnouts
Now that benchwork has progressed on the Amoskeag Northern, we can start laying some track so that we can get to the real point of the layout, running trains!

Starting the Benchwork
John Armstrong I am not, so I won’t bore you with what I think are acceptable track planning practices, which in all reality I would probably just be making up. So assuming you have already worked out a track plan, we’ll get down to building some benchwork and sub-roadbed.

An introduction to the Amoskeag Northern
My free-lanced Amoskeag Northern, set in Northern New England, features branch and secondary lines, and regional Amtrak service, run using a central dispatcher. Over the next several articles I’ll be showing you how I will be going about building, adding scenery, and running the layout, and hopefully provide you with some ideas for yours, regardless of scale.
