Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary Logs the Pacific Northwest in HO Scale
Tour the Clear Lake Timber Company, Carl Brainerd's freelanced, HO scale logging railroad. You will love this exquisitely-modeled little layout. In this feature, you'll learn about the layout's construction and scenery and how Carl operates it, and you'll get to see the railroad at work. A short interview with Carl at the layout is included.

You Could Own this Beautiful Canadian Pacific Layout in HO Scale
This previously featured, bedroom-sized layout is now for sale: check out Gerry Yurkoski's Flathead Valley Branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway, a freelanced layout based in a mythical location in the Canadian Rockies. You'll see photos of the layout from our feature as well as some overall photos and detail shots that Gerry took.

Modeling a Flat Tire Roadside Repair
Create a unique scene showcasing a flat tire repair. We created a printable PDF of a strut and brake assembly for O, HO, or N scale that you can install on a model vehicle. Then scratch-build a bottle jack according to our step-by-step instructions and make your own scene. This project is shomewhat challenging because the parts are small, but if you have a steady hand and a little patience, you'll be fine (but N scale will be tougher!).
