N Scale Northeast Corridor 1983-2022, Pt1, Layout WIP

A series of videos on N scale railroad modeling of the electrified Washington DC to Boston Northeast Corridor. Each video covers an era from 1930-2022. Videos feature my WIP 33’ shelf layout with 4-track mainline, catenary, protoypical 8-track station, elevated 3rd rail, 6-track bridge, and subway station.

Existing era-prototypical trains are run together. Their history and model performance is briefly reviewed. Since few NEC models are available, I present an elaborate Wishlist of future train and structures models including my rating, liveries, history and potential manufacturers. I encourage viewers to contact manufacturers to produce their favorites.
