Large Scale Central

Maryland Central Open House Pics

Dick Weatherby’s Maryland Central is set in Northern Maryland right along the old right of way of the Maryland and Pennsylvania RR (the Ma & Pa). Dick’s Railroad is set into the steep grade of a rocky mountain that makes you Western boys look like wimps. Climbing the hill is better suited to mountain goats. There are five separate loops set into the steep grade and a six separate loop on the far lower level.

Wow he has some layout. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Brian,

Very fine shots !! Dick does indeed have an exceptional railroad and you have documented it quite well. Thanks for the photo tour.

Now that is cool! Sitting on the patio and looking up at it! I like the natural plants in there as well like the ferns,moss and mayapples.
