30 CINCINNATI TO HOST LARGEST S SCALE LAYOUT IN THE WORLD? by Rodger Pille The History Museum, located in the renovated Union Station in Cincinnati, is building a 3500+ square foot S scale layout.

18 HOW I CREATED MY OWN ARMY TRAIN by Bill Newhouse Bill's club, the Cuyhoga S Valley Gaugers, has three portable layouts that it brings to train shows. Bill felt an Army train would be a popular addition to the layout, so he set out to build one of his own, with excellent results.
34 S GAUGE AT NIGHT The use of lighting on an S scale layout makes a dramatic scene when the sun goes down. These photographs may inspire you to create your own nighttime lighting effects.
