Gilbert Junction 
Chris Hopper HO gauge 3.5mm scale
Gilbert Junction is a US HO switching layout using Kadee couplers for 'hands-off' operation and Peco US code 83 track.
The layout represents the 1950s Bosten and Maine Railroad with passenger, freight and milk trains. The main industry is a dairy and there is a branch line interchange yard and a track to an off-stage paper mill. Many of the freight cars are resin kits and some of the locos are repainted. Many of the structures are scratch-built. The layout is operated on DC but has been used successfully with a DCC system.
Other US railroads and periods make occasional appearances on the layout. The operators are always happy to discuss the layout, US rail-roading and modelling and - occasionally - DCC operation.
