| Introduction | I've been in model railroading for over sixty years. I've built large O scale and HO scale layouts in Massachusetts before entering N scale in 2000 when I lived in Florida. The "Original" JJJ&E was named after my four grand daughters; Julie, Jenna, Jillian & Emily. The "Original" JJJ&E was in full operation for over nine years before it was completely dismantled when I moved from Florida to Texas in February 2009. N scale really intrigues me and I now am building the "New" JJJ&E which is now almost eight years old. About 99% of the basic scenery has been completed and the layout is fully operational. I've written 8 articles for N Scale Magazine in the past five years. The "New" JJJ&E is an inverted "U" shaped around the room layout that is run by DCC using a NCE Radio Controlled Power Pro. |
