Canadian RAIL Canadien

L'époque représenter est la fin des années 1980 et le milieu des années 1990. Cela me permet d’opérer mes locomotive MLW favorite. La région géographique est l’est Canadien, a proximité de Montréal (Qc) et s'étendant vers le sud et sud-est vers Saint-Hyacinthe, Québec et les maritimes. Le Canadien National (CN)  et le Saint-Lambert et Chambly (SL&C chemin de fer fictif ) sont les chemin de fer du réseau. Le CN opère entre  Bonaventure, Saint-Lambert et Chambly avec une flotte de locomotive MLW . Le SL&C utilise des locomotives de deuxième génération quelque peu user, et opère principalement entre Saint-Lambert , Chambly, la cour de triage La Chine, et l'extreme Est du reseau.

Pour le service de passager le BOeC est servie par le servive de passager CN Turbotrain, le  LRC de VIA RAIL (bientot)  et une ligne de train de banlieue le STUB ( Société de Transport Urbain de Bonaventure)                        

The  layout was started in 2003 in the basement of my home. The layout is proto-lance, meaning it is based on a real area / location but the setting has been altered for space and flexibility consideration. The layout is HO scale.

The era model is late 1980 to mid 1990's. that way it allows me to run some of my favorite MLW locomotive. The geographic location is eastern Canada, in close proximity to Montreal and runnign parallel to the St-Laurent river, and south and south-east towards the Maritimes. Operators are one Class 1 the Canadian national (CN) and one local short-line the fictitious Saint-Lambert et Chambly (SL&C) Since the original prototype structures and right of way has not changed much in the last 100 years, this allows me to run some trains that would not have appeared during the modeled time-period. CN Operates between Bonaventure , Saint-Lambert and Chambly with a fleet of MLW . SL&C uses second hand motive power. SL&C serves local industries in Saint-Lambert and Chambly, including the busy La Chine yard. For passenger services the BOeC is serve by CN TurboTrain and (soon) the VIA RailLRC,  and the STUB (Societe de Transport Urbain de Bonaventure)

The layout is point to point with continous running. It was built with operation in  mind  and continuous running when I feel like rail-fanning. The layout can accomodate 5 operators. The layout is DCC and some loco have sound. The layout occupies an area of 11 feet by 35 feet. I use MRC Prodigy Advance wireless.
