April 11th Op Session on the Milwaukee Road

The Friends Layouts section of RiverRail celebrates model railroads operated by close collaborators who aren’t official members but share the group’s passion for realistic operations and community spirit. These layouts often participate in RiverRail events or welcome RiverRail operators for special sessions, expanding the network of shared experiences beyond the core roster. Each Friends layout reflects the unique vision of its builder, offering fresh scenery, operational challenges, and regional flavor. By including these railroads, RiverRail fosters a broader sense of connection and mutual support across the model railroading community.
