At each of the EPTC Meets my photos seen to have a unique topic(s). This year most of the photos were the models and portable layouts made up of modules.
The 1st set of photos are an HO layout which had a single PCC car operating. If you have a small space this style of layout my be of interest to you.
This is a Z scale layout (I think.). It's one large module with 2 half loop modules at each end. Multiple trolleys were operating.
Another group which had an operating layout was the Northwest Traction Group. What is important about this group is that the membership is composed of both old, up in age and new, younger members. Moving the modules and setting-up a layout has been taken over by the younger members. The layout is HO scale. Unfortunately I did not take any good photos other than this.
Another layout were I failed to get good photos is composed of 3D printed parts. Is this the future of our hobby?
Finally, some photos of the O scale EPTC modules with trolley models. My model is the blue and white CWT line car. This model has operated at the Meet on the layout for the last 4 EPTC Meets; 2013, 2015, 2017, and this year 2019. The photos are all O scale models.
The last photo is included to show a unique treatment of a loop. This module can be an end module or placed somewhere in a line of modules to turn back some trolleys. Note the dual through tracks are offset.
The best way to take photos of individual models is:
1) Turn off the flash and use normal room light.
2) Place your camera on the edge of the layout.
3) Take the photo when the model is standing still.
Hope you enjoy the photos. Cheers,
Ed
