The Fiddletown Project


The HOn30 Fiddletown & Copperopolis display for MiniTrains is complete and on its way to Germany. It took a year, part time, to build the display. Like most model railroads the structures were the most labor intensive.

The landforms were made from bead board. The crumbly white styrofoam that most scenery builders hate - I love the stuff. The rocks are thin sections of the Scenic Express foam rocks.

I'm putting together a construction article for the Gazette so you can read all about the construction process. So stayed tuned.
