Description of the THSP railroad – Twain Harte and Sonora Pass RR – 10-16-10  

Old time logging railroad set in late 40’s in foothills and Sierra’s.  Center point is Twain Harte – just north of Yosemite Park. Layout is loosely based on the West Side Lumber and Pickering Lumber Companies.  But also some inspiration from Mich Cal, Empire State Logging, and other logging companies in the Sierra’s near Sonora, CA.  Narrow gauge of course – On3. 

Motive power it geared engines, Shay’s, Climax’s to Heisler’s many brass but also Bachmann locomotives.  Sound and DCC is installed on all engines.  Scenery is complete – over 200 trees, many scratch built, structures are from kits to modified kits to scratch-built.  Over 200 linear feet of track that is totally hand laid.  The layout is featured in the Nov-Dec 2010 issue of the Gazette.  A picture of the layout is in the Sept-Oct issue of the Gazette.  Complete backdrop painted by Dave Biondi. 

Layout is in a finished basement room.  Go in the garage and the layout is in the back left.
