The layout is set in Hoboken/Jersey City New Jersey in 1959 featuring the Jersey Central & Lehigh Valley operations with carfloats and heavy industrial switching. The layout is small, 265 square feet, but packs a lot of action to keep a crew of four busy for 2 – 2 -1/2 hours. Car cards direct traffic and Easy DCC controls the motive power. Most of the engines have sound and feature first generation examples from most of the major builders, Alco, Baldwin, Fairbanks Morse & EMD. Based on a fictional "Association", not merger, of the CNJ & LV due to Hurricane Diane’s rampage in 1955. Both roads had redundant parallel trackage, especially in NE Pennsylvania. Started in 2001 and first operated in 2003 the railroad continues to evolve. Although static at present, major changes are planned for 2012.
