Bob & Lisa Charles

   The DFNG was begun in 2003 and has since expanded to about 1500 feet of track covering an area of about 110 ft. by 100 ft. It models in the era of 1890-1910 (along with some whimsy!). The scale is mostly Fn3 with all trains B/RC. A few pictures will yield some of the salient features of the railroad. Construction continues…
