Large Scale Central

Deconstructing the Allegheny Valley RR

I’m supposed to be getting moved to a different place the first of the month, and the layout is in the way of getting anything else in or out of the apartment… so today was d-day. :frowning: First, all the little peoples got evicted and were crammed into a container like a bunch of illegals…

Then the church and school were closed and all the vehicles were confiscated (sounds like a bad Marxist state, don’t it?)… the houses soon followed.

Followed by unrestricted logging…(funny, I don’t remember buying THAT many, do they breed?)

Looks depressing, doesn’t it? I THINK I can break the table into 3 sections for transport without removing the trackwork. Getting it down the stairs without making a mess from the ballast might be another story.

Boxes of train stuff awaiting a new beginning… kind of like buds in spring, lol

Had to do something like that a few months back. Don’t worry - Phoenix will rise from the ashes!

Look at the bright side…you get to start all over again on a bigger and better layout. Had to go through the same thing a few years back… went from this:
