Exclusive photos of Graham Leather's layout from last month's WMRC layout hop

Check out the action on Graham Leather's layout! Note the Winnipeg skyline, which includes Brandon's Mackenzie Seeds building, and Graham's model of Seattle's King Street station.

At our members-only layout hop last month we dispatched our chief correspondent Murray Brown to investigate Graham Leather's layout, and the results were very impressive! Graham inherited this layout from his father, the late, great Norm Leathers, who was a WMRC members for almost 70 years. Graham has not only maintained the layout but has made several changes and added his own person touch. 

Long time fans of Norm's layout will notice the seismic shift from running the Pennsylvania Railroad to Great Northern and . Even the huge UP articulated steamers run great on this layout! WMRC membership has many privileges, and one of them is joining in on the fun on our layout hops. So if you want to see some of Winnipeg's finest layouts in action, then join up!

Graham enjoys running UP's huge articulated steamers, which run smoothly on his layout.

Graham has a very impressive collection of  Great Northern motive power and rolling stock.

If you don't want to take the train you can always go Greyhound on Graham's layout.

Graham designed and built the shelving to hold all of his rolling stock. The shelves slide out smoothly, providing convenient  access to all of his trains.
