Jeff Abbott’s N Scale Espee Oregon Division

One of the layouts tentatively scheduled for the 2012 PSR "The Ventura Flyer" Convention in September is Jeff Abbott’s N scale Espee Oregon Division.  Jeff lives in Valencia, CA.

This is a late 1970s era railroad modeling a loose rendition of SP's Cascade Subdivision.  The layout is 16' x 20' plus isles.

Jeff has a blog and a Photobucket album.  The links are below, as is a link to the Convention website.  Be sure to check out the photos of the scratch-build rotary dumper and the thirty-plus car beet rack accident.  Track plans for both the lower and upper layout levels also are included.

Jeff's a great modeler and someone that I have tried to entice to post more here on the RW before.  He is certainly an :ashat: in waiting.

I've had the luck and honor to operate on Jeff's layout and it is amazing. He and his co-hort Ray make it worth the drive!  :D

If one of you does go, we'll be expecting a well narrated slide show after . . .
