    Ken McCorry’s PRR

    Ken Mccorry's HO scale Pennsylvania Railroad is the biggest home layout in the US. It has three levels and fantastic scenery. Operating signals. Mostly diesels with a few steam engines. NCE DCC controls. Ops sessions require 30 people to operate. Layout is on the 2nd floor of a barn size garage with the dispatcher located on the 1st floor. Ken was featured in Model Railroader in December 2004 and April 1999 and Model Railroad Craftsman in March 1988.

    I watched about 20 minutes of the first video, Bill. I don't have time to catch the rest of them this morning ... but I get the picture. That's quite a railroad with an enormous number of interesting scenery and track work factors. :)

    It's big (and beautiful) but I don't think it's the biggest. I think Jeff Otto has him beat by over 1000 square feet.
