Up                Rio Golara Southern Railroad Slideshow
Layout by 
Pete Bellos, Master Model Railroader #389. The scale is Sn3 and it is 
during the 1920s-30s.   It was built over a 16 year period. Many 
of the structures are scratch built and some are from kits.

The tour starts at the Golara yards - down the track to Ulents Flats around the
corner to the stock pens and mine, around the peninsula to the mines and 
the end of the completed scenery -then long shots reversing the tour.
