CTC information. Below are two links to a nice explanation of how CTC will work on my layout.






Please note that this guys' design does not include the Code Button.  It would be below the levers and must be pressed to cause the signals and turnouts to change provided that the change is not prohibited by track conditions.

See below my design.  The code button is the lowest switch on the board.

Western Maryland Railway - Blue Ridge Div.  Brian Wolfe

I was only able to visit three of the many layout sites that were available on Saturday and on Sunday. 
This HO layout represents the Western Maryland Railway from Hagerstown, MD to York, PA in September 1970.  It occupies a 30 x 45 basement, with a crew lounge, workshop, and dispatcher's office.
























 

Waynecastle Central - Waynesboro Model Railroad Club.

This club has a large HO layout on the first floor, an N scale, a two rail O Scale, and a three rail O Gauge layouts on the second floor.  Something for everyone.  Generally open to the public at Christmas.
