Wabeno Timberline


Bob Prondzinski's Wabeno Timberline Railroad The Wabeno Timberline is a multi-scale, multi-level layout by Robert Prondzinski of Lindenhurst, Illinois. It was presented to us in the form of an operating schematic. This page shows all the parts and how they fit together. The diagrams were generated by Train Controller, a popular product for running actual layouts from Railroad & Co. The TrainPlayer version comes with ten files, all interconnected. Open Wabeno_Main as the starting point -- it's the overview diagram, with a little length of invisible track to take you into the railroad. Start the train and enjoy the ride. Switches have not been set in any particular way, so a full ride is not guaranteed unless you participate. Note: angles are steep in these plans, and you may have trouble throwing switches. If so, reduce the "Minimum Angle To Open" setting (File Preferences > Switches) to 130 or below.

This module is used mainly to run a few trains in the background mountain scene while I operate the Main layout and it's appropriate attached modules.
