How About Some Model Railroad Photography?

Since some Hoggers seem to be model railroaders (as I am), photographing our layouts and dioramas is a natural combination. It might be fun to see what y’all are up to.

I dug out my old Marklin rolling stock during COVID, and rekindled my interest in the hobby. My 4’ x 8’ layout (on top of our unused dining room table) evolves constantly, but my theme is a German city that has the old city walls along side newer structures, roughly in the period following WWII. The locomotives are diesel. Marklin is a 3-rail AC system, and my layout has three controlled loops.

I hope other Hoggers let us see their layouts.

Beautiful. I've always loved model trains but only had them as a kid and never pursued the hobby after that.

This might not be what you mean, but... For about 8 years I helped out at the Albuquerque's G-Scale Garden Railroad. A nice layout with lots of track needing cleaning every day. To get a look see check out my website for RR photos.
