SUMMARY:100. Rileyville Railroad
DESCRIPTION:The Rileyville Railroad is named after our dog Riley\, an 11-year-old Catahoula Leopard Hound. The 4-year-old railroad is improving with time. The railroad was created from our imagination. It does not represent a specific time or era but encompasses traits we find interesting in the hobby. It covers 550 sq. ft. and has a 220-ft. main line with 40 ft. of sidings. The layout features a 20 ft. long\, 20-inch-high curved trestle\, 8-ft.-long tunnel\, Engine Yard\, Rileyville Station\, Farm\, Rare Rock Mine\, Cemetery\, and a new Whimsical Giant Sea Shell Shop. Our scratch building improves with each project. We think we represent what Garden Railroading is all about: running trains\, having fun with likeminded people and sharing our passion with others. \nSee a detailed description of the Rileyville Railroad here.

SUMMARY:101. Conejo & Tortuga Railroad
DESCRIPTION:The Conejo and Tortuga Railroad is a free-lance designed layout of approximately 270 ft consisting of a large mountain and a distinctly mid 20’s western ghost town inspired by the movie “Rango”. The layout has recently undergone some major changes and additions such as the replacement of 10 feet of underground tunnel structure and addition of a spur line to a silver mine. The railroad is battery-powered only and operated using the Revolution 2.4GHz Train Engineer Transmitter and Revolution 2.4GHz On Board Receivers. All turnouts and turntable are hand operated. Welcome Aboard.

SUMMARY:103. Cascade Peak & Buena Vista Railway
DESCRIPTION:The inspiration for our central California garden railway is the “Happiest Place On Earth.” Not one you might visit today\, but one you knew growing up – or might have known if plans had developed as intended. This freelance 2300 sq. ft. layout is sighted above a “counter height” retaining wall.  Denver and Rio Grande Western (LGB) rolling stock still operate under that historic herald on this tourist destination line.  As with most projects of this scope\, ours will never truly be finished\, but the Main Street Trolley (50 ft.)\, perimeter loop (365 ft.)\, and Mine Train around through Nature’s Wonderland (100 ft.) are now complete. We invite you to preview these lands\, in the hope you will return and share the excitement as our story unfolds. \nSee a detailed description of the Cascade Peak and Buena Vista Railway here.

SUMMARY:104. M & M on Main Street Railroad
DESCRIPTION:The M & M on Main Street Railroad consists of a large irregular shaped oval with approximately 225 ft. of track divided into a single main with three by-pass tracks. Minimum and maximum radius of the curves are 2 ½ ft. and 3 ft.\, respectively.  Several scratch-built structures\, including houses\, movie theater and retail shops have been added to honor their 14 grandchildren\, 4 children and their spouses. Each engine is battery powered and radio controlled. To accommodate the various elevation of the yard\, there are two\, not yet complete\, (but functional)\, trestle loops\, and a ten-foot bridge.

SUMMARY:105. MNL Railroad
DESCRIPTION:The MNL Railroad is a free-lance railroad sited on sloping terrain overlooking the picturesque Arroyo Grande Creek Valley. This garden railroad measures 80 ft. x 80 ft. with 700 ft. of track plus sidings. It features three swale-spanning bridges\, a covered trestle with three tracks including a 70-ft. long storage track within the “mountainside”\, a 13 ft. x 20 ft. lake fed by a waterfall that the train runs behind\, a mountain/canyon section\, and a large industrial area. Recent additions include several town street and park scenarios and dozens of scale figures. A separate upper track spans a large canyon on a suspension bridge. \nSee a detailed description of the MNL Railroad  here.

SUMMARY:106. Monarch & Sand Railroad
DESCRIPTION:Children can appreciate the M&SRR while they happily play with livestock and tractors in our farm diorama and with clowns and attractions in our circus diorama. (They will not be allowed to play in our planned toxic derailment diorama.) Adults can enjoy our Airwire-controlled locomotives from walkways or from our patio\, as the trains circulate on 300 ft. of track\, consisting of a mainline\, a yard\, a loop\, a wye\, and an agricultural siding. Listen for our Western-Cullen-Hayes No. 333 Crossing Bell! Watch the M&SRR High Flyer! Note: Our recently landscaped yard features decomposed granite paths. Anyone needing to avoid them can come through our house. There are no steps. Also: Some surplus G and HO for sale. We look forward to seeing you! \nSee a detailed description of the MNL Railroad here.

SUMMARY:111. A&M Railroad
DESCRIPTION:The A & M Railroad consists of two separate large-scale layouts. The original layout has been reconfigured into an 80-ft. oval featured in the center of the garden. In 2021\, following 16 months of construction\, the new 193-ft. triple main line was completed. This impressive layout is raised 30 inches from ground level for ease of operation and viewing. All three lines cross an arch top drawbridge allowing operators to access the center of the layout. Kit and kit-bashed structures\, details and figures are distributed throughout creating unique scenes to delight visitors.

SUMMARY:114. Carolwood Bitter Creek Southern
DESCRIPTION:The Carolwood Bitter Creek Southern Railroad is a free-lance layout under construction with approximately 50 ft of LGB track completed. The outer loop is a dog bone and inner loop a circle for a trolley or speeder. This  elevated railroad will be extended 200 feet along the 3-foot-high retaining wall. Many structures were salvaged from a “fallen” railroad and will need some paint and re-shingling. Some of the structures give it the “Old West” motif. The railroad is currently track-powered but will also have AirWire controlled battery power later. All turnouts are hand throw. Part 2 expansion is a scaled copy of the Walt Disney Barn to add a suspended oval of track(s) around the ceiling.  “Disney” Barn will be open to see work in progress.
