David Popp hosts this extensive recap of the entire Canadian Canyons N scale layout construction effort. In this nearly 45 minute video presentation, David digs deep into the 1:1 scale inspiration for this undertaking (Watch Drew’s Trackside Adventures, episodes 29, 30, and 31). He also examines the challenges of shaping a layout plan that dared to bring rugged mountain scenery and high-volume railroad operation down to 1:160 scale. David then devotes attention to showcasing the wide array of old and new tips, tricks, and techniques that he, along with an incredibly talented complement of guest and staff modelers, used to bring it all to fruition – all in time for cover story presentation in the January 2019 issue of Model Railroader magazine!

  1. David, it is my understanding that MRVP is no longer a thing? Also, I thought the word Kalmbach was gone too? Where are your offices now?
