This is a tour of my Clear Lake Timber Company model railroad. It is a small layout sized to fit in a spare bedroom. The theme is Pacific Northwest logging, although there are a couple of non-logging industries to add a little variety. The layout is HO scale, standard gauge. The track plan is point-to-point due to space constraints, with two switchbacks connecting one end (sawmill) with the other end (logging camp). It has the sharp curves and steep grades typical of a logging railroad. The video shows what is on the layout, and then follows a log train as it drops off empty log cars at the log camp, and then takes loaded cars from the log camp down to the sawmill. Revision 1 added some titles to describe what the train movements were doing. Thanks for visiting!


I've had a request for the track plan. I do have it on paper, with JPEG images of it on-line. Here are links to the track plan images. They're a little rough, and the structure installations may have changed a little bit from the plan, but this is pretty close.
