Building a Rail Yard Transfer Table



 🚧 New Project Under Construction 🚧
Last Update: 05/10/2019 



My S-Scale Track Plans:
I recently moved from Fountain Hills where I had a 5'x16' foot cabinet top train layout. I built it shortly after we moved in to our home of 15 years. Myself being older now, and with my wife passing away, I decided to move back to where we first lived when we first came to Arizona 20 years ago. 

I now live in North Scottsdale in a gated condo-apartment complex. I have more then enough room to build another S-Scale American Flyer layout in the attached garage. I decided go with the Northern Arizona backdrop (Grand Canyon - Sedona) which is going to be point to point.  I will be building a Custom Operating Rail-Yard Transfer Table at the far end of the layout.
