Product Details

Allen McClelland encouraged modelers to look at their layouts not as stand-alone entities, but as links in the North American rail system — looking beyond the basement.

Introduction

Take a look at Allen’s HO scale Virginian and Ohio layout, one of the best-known layouts of all time. This inspirational layout pioneered many concepts that later became standards in layout design.

Find inspiration in how the Virginian and Ohio was conceived and developed, and get ideas for applying the same concepts to your own layout!

Allen became well-known not just for his V and O’s realistic scenery, setting, and theme, but for showing us how to:

  • Use walkaround command control to take advantage of linear track plans
  • Choose a railroad name and theme that reflect prototype regions and railroads
  • Adopt operating procedures based on prototype practices
