The Franklin & South Manchester, one of the greatest model railroads ever built, is the creation of professional model builder George Sellios. Because of George's talents you'll see something new each time you watch this fabulous program. You'll ride on board and then go airborne for some helicopter rides over the city of Manchester. That's the best way to see the F&SM where the 20 story buildings are the scenery.
You'll tour the layout behind a Mogul powered passenger and a Mountain powered freight, from one end of the 22 x 7 foot layout to the other. Although the F&SM is HO scale, George Sellios, the owner of Fine Scale Miniatures, has created a railroad that exists as surely as Chicago or New York did in the 1930s.
George will give you 8 clinics on his time-proven methods. He covers painting and weathering a brick structure, applying printed signs, superdetailing, creating a realistic harbor scene, improving the appearance of flextrack, finding the right spot for a structure, building city streetsl, and quickly making realistic fences.
You're sure to enjoy the scenery and trains on the F&SM where the craftsmanship goes beyond superdetailing. You can see our second visit to this fabulous railroad - with even more of the layout completed - in Volume 24, and our THIRD visit in Volume 39.
