The second life of the Old Glory mine

Better known on modelling shows for his Swiss stations in H012, Jean-Pierre Muratore built this American layout to display the rolling stock he had collected over the years. The theme selected, inspired by one of Dominique Aumenier’s layouts, was a short line serving a mine in the Rocky Mountains. Faced with track and wiring problems, the builder got bored with the layout and wanted to get rid of it. I took it over, without the rolling stock and the fiddleyard. It was renovated and modified over the two months before the Chambéry exhibition in October 2021.
