Terry Terrance has been a model rail-
roader since receiving his first Lionel
train set at age 7. The next couple
of decades he spent as a 3-railer
attempting to scale model in the
days before 3 Rail Scale. Eventually,
rather than go the HO route, Terry
jumped into 2-rail O Scale where he has been ever since.
Currently Terry is building a model of the B&O “West End”
centered around the M&K Junction helper station circa
1950/2 in his basement. The layout features the Cranberry
(three-track) and the Cheat River (two-track) grades and is
designed for helper operation closely following the prototype.
Terry’s blog (
) features the con-
struction progress as well as tips and techniques, articles
and videos. Terry is part of the regular crew of the
Model
Rail Radio
podcast and has also appeared on the
Model
Railcast
podcast.
