Flagler Model Railroad Club
Flagler Model Railroad Club Layouts
The HO and N scale layout groups began the basic construction of their respective layouts in late April 2015. These two layout groups started with two basic concepts.
The first concept was that the layout needed to be able to display trains in just a simple operating format (circle the layout) plus the layout needed to be able to be operated like the prototype (pick up and delivery service from various yards, sidings and spurs).
The second was that the layouts needed to be able to use sections from the clubs previous HO and N scale layouts. The club does/did not have the funds available to create two new and unique pair of layouts but the club does have several basic sections from previous HO and N scale layouts that could be used as the foundation for two new layouts.
Thus the members of the HO scale group and the members of the N scale group started with a basic framework concept, installed existing modules were desired, and then started adding the framework to connect the existing modules so that as soon as the basic track configuration was completed trains could be operated.

Basic Track Plan for the HO Scale Layout
Please remember these two drawings are the preliminary track plans subject to change as the respective layouts are build. The basic goals at this point is to get the most basic operations in place so that the members can have fun watching their trains move around the layout while the more complicated tasks of adding sidings, spurs, yards, and scenery takes place.
