August 17, 2024–They Cyprus Route – Helix Update
Presented by Mark Riviea
The Cypress Route is a prototype-based HO scale layout inspired by the Seaboard Coast Line’s Columbia Subdivisionprior to May 1, 1971. This territory extended from Columbia, SC to Savannah, GA.
Construction of the layout began one year ago with building the 9-foot high helix that will transport trains between three layout levels. To reveal hidden trains traveling the grade, the fascia has been opened to reveal several signature scenes as shadow boxes and ring extensions. Peeks into and around the helix reveal a busy interlocking plant, a large freight shipping port, a derailment clean-up with its still-smoldering forest fire, and another scene yet to be determined.
Come see my progress so far, and my plans for the future!

Looking for another good clinic.

Charlie is taking some time for his health – we wish him well – so until he returns if you have clinic ideas or wish to volunteer send an email to Jim at jamestowntrains@gmail.com

As the Clinic Coordinator I look at what this requires and realize we all can contribute to our clinics. I started with a sheet of plywood with my father back when I was a child and since then have done so much, especially in the last few years. We all have skills and experiences that we can share. Being retired from the Education profession also has shown me that what I have done in the past can help someone else looking for an answer. I will call upon all of you to share what you have learned, because we all have a love of trains.
