George Sellios' Franklin & South Manchester. A focus on Tracks and Trains,

During a conversation at the last Open House (July 20, 2024), George mentioned to me that there has not been a lot said about the track work on the F&SM. And, if one studies all the photos and videos taken over the years and posted on various social media sites, the emphasis leans heavily on all the amazing structures. That of course comes with the territory when this layout comes from the man who set the gold standard for highly detailed craftsman kits with his company Fine Scale Miniatures. George's artistic gift and technical aptitude is not just limited to structures, but covers the whole range of the hobby, including trackwork. These trains runs smooth. These trains don't derail. These trains don't stall. You don't see a train ever needing a gentle nudge to make it run again on the Franklin & South Manchester. So here's a few minutes of some still shots of close up track detail. You will see, if you look hard enough, rail joiners, solder joints, and very well hidden wire connections. All of the basic things that it takes to make a model railroad go. And then ballasting, paint and weathering to conceal and give it realism. Of course sprinkled in between the still shots is plenty of footage of all these well constructed trains running flawlessly throughout the Franklin & South Manchester. I agree with George. This trackwork is just amazing. #finescaleminiatures #georgesellios #modelrailroad #hoscale
