Scale: G

Description:
The “G” scale train layout is approximately 75' wide and 25' deep, with an “arm” available to run the trains into a storage shed. There are three separate tracks that encompass about 900' of track, tunnels, bridges and running water. It also includes a two-track trolley run attached to the backyard wall. Bob runs almost exclusively billboard type rolling stock.

A Special Note: Bob has one of the most fantastic collection of custom, one of a kind "G" scale car collection you can imaging.

Directions: From the Strip, take I-15 North to I-95 North (towards Reno ) and exit at Durango (Exit 93). Turn right and go down the hill for about 1/2 mile, passing through the stoplight ( Farm Road ) to the first stop sign ( Grand Teton ). Turn right on Grand Teton (CAREFUL, CAREFUL, SPEED LIMIT is 25 much of the way and a “SPEED TRAP” with radar lurking) and proceed about 2 1/2 miles to Rainbow (Stop Sign and your almost there). Continue straight past Rainbow for about 1/8 mile to Garehime and turn Left into the Steeple Chase complex (large sign at ground level) (Gated entrance; dial #0209 on the call box to open the gate. Take immediate Right to dead end and turn Left. I'm the first house on the Right after you turn onto Church Steeple. Park on the street.

It is suggest that you wear a hat since much of his backyard is in the sunlight until late-afternoon.
