Grey River & Northern

The Grey River offers a wide variety of scenic interest in a compact space thanks to the double-sided backdrop. The twice-around plan has industries to serve and a runaround to help with the switching chores.

Notes on operation: While the layout can only support the operation of one train, there are both leading and trailing sidings, plus a runaround, for plenty of switching action, assuming that uncoupling ramps are installed on the sidings.
