You are invited to another FREE model railroad layout tour sponsored by Model Railroads of Southern California. This will be our fourteenth layout tour and there are fourteen layouts on this tour.
The tour will take place throughout Southern California and is self-guided. The theme of this tour is "small layouts". These smaller layouts should inspire those of you without a lot of space to finally build a layout and run those trains now sitting idle in storage. As you will discover, an apparent lack of space doesn't have to keep you from having a layout.
The layouts on this tour will be:
-Bedroom size or smaller -Shelf layouts that don't dominate a room or garage, or -Layouts that can be lifted or folded out of the way to return the space to other uses
Below is basic information about the tour. Additional downloadable information, including two maps for every layout, is available in the Files Section of the group at:
Be sure to check the group website the day before the tour to see if any changes to the schedule or layout lineup have occurred.
If you cannot attend this tour, more tours are scheduled, including a Santa Barbara area layout tour in January.
And if you have a layout that you would like to show on a future tour, please contact me.

This is an update to the layout tour scheduled for the weekend of March 14 and 15 in the Bakersfield/Tehachapi (CA) area.
The garden layouts of John Bell, Rick Passalacqua and Dan Steinberg have been withdrawn from Tour #16 due to winter storm damage. All nineteen other layouts in Bakersfield (14), the Lake Isabella area (2) and Tehachapi (3) will be open. There has been no weather impact on these layouts or on the Train Show at the Kern County Fairgrounds in Bakersfield.
All three garden layout owners reported that last week’s storm and the current storm have caused roadbed displacement and water logged the grounds and walkways. They do not believe they can make repairs in time for the layout tour.
However, all three owners still would like to show their garden layouts on a future tour when conditions have improved. A future tour for these three layouts will be scheduled.
If you have questions about this tour or future tours, please contact me at: chiefbobbb@verizon.net
