set is inspired by the crossing of the TP&W with the UP in
Chenoa, Illinois. It's major features are a functional interchange,
high speed crossing, and a now derelict depot. |

| The city of
Peoria straddles the mainline tracks, one of this bustling metropolis'
two main features. The other is its Gothic, Turn of the Century ( the
one before that ), Cathedral, built when Peoria was little more than a
cow-town (and a one cow-town at that) and the railroad ran a single
train per day. Today, Peoria is a thriving center of commerce and
culture, as witnessed by the extensive downtown reconstruction and the
near constant rumble of rail traffic. |
|
 |
| The modeled
portion of the City of Quincy shows its industrial backbone: a railroad
classification yard, lumber yard, oil refinery and its crown jewel, the
Global Automotive Assembly Plant #7, the areas largest employer. |

| A module that is
Dual track in one direction and a crossing of single track at 90°. This
module might be an actual crossing in a future layout, and
works
as a scenery piece and filler in the present. |

| Wallace |

Free-Mo |
| Wallace, a two
piece module, is loosely inspired by the Roselle Industrial Park and is
meant to generate and receive freight traffic. Each corner is a
separate industry. It also has a short passing siding/run around track.
Wallace is named for the owner's in-laws and each industry is named
after a specific family member. |

| Albuquerque |
Don Wadleigh |
NMRA |
| The Albuquerque module is a
re-creation of the Albuquerque Passenger Depot and Station in
Albuquerque, New Mexico based solely on the owners childhood memories
of that classic Mission Style depot and restaurant. The
Albuquerque
Depot was built in 1902, as part of a large complex that also included
the Alvarado Harvey Hotel. Stucco-on-frame construction gave the
buildings a deceptively solid-looking appearance. The depot was
destroyed by fire in January of 1993. This module is under
re-construction as a generic mission-style passenger station. |

| A module that we
have deliberately kept 'blank'. On this module we'll perform
demonstrations for the public on things like decaling, figure painting,
etc. |

| An 'imagineered'
present day industrial park on a riverfront, intended to imitate an
industrial area on the fringe of a city like Peoria, IL or Burlington,
IA. Built as a switching module, included a passing siding, a work
siding, and a 45° corner. A small engine terminal serviced engines that
served the different industries present. Included Bowman Beverage
Distributors, Reno Lumber team track, CMD Publishing, Cedric Cement,
KVO Mfg, an REA terminal, and Swanson Fuel Depot. |

Todd Gayhart |
Free-Mo |
| Prospect East,
Prospect West, and Prospect Junction are set in a typical
rural-Midwestern locale during the post-Staggers Act era of railroad
abandonments. With no switches, lineside industries, or sidings, the
pastoral setting and straightforward design achieves both a visual and
operational separation of the industrial switching districts on a
typical NWTM layout. The modules can be placed separately in a layout,
however they tend to look best when placed together. |
