Ken Poznaniak's CS&W RR

Ken Poznaniak’s Chesapeake, Susquehanna and Western Railroad (HO) is a contemporary line featuring Amtrak passenger trains and modern, high capacity freight trains.  This fully scenicked, bi-level layout is connected at each end by a helix permitting running or point to point DCC Digitrak operation.

Featured industries include a coal processing plant with an automated, continuous running, coal loading facility and an automated rotary dumper for the hopper cars at a large power plant.  A major steel mill with dual blast furnaces, rolling mill, and all the necessary support facilities generates much of the traffic for the railroad, and plenty of switching chores for the operating crews.  Also an engine terminal with roundhouse and turntable servicing both diesel locomotives and steam engines which power rail fan specials.

Ken’s is the 83rd model railroad I’ve visited with a total of 253 videos as of 4-10-2016, which can be viewed on the PhillyNMRA.org website under Cab Ride Layout Videos.

When you mentioned Aberdeen, I was almost going to put money on you heading to Ken's.

The coal loading and unloading alone is worth watching for.

It's a great layout, and Ken's a great guy.

Impressive, I would love to see the inner working of that coal loader.
