​​In 2022 I com[pleted my Scenic Ridge layout kit (from Woodland Scenics).​ Next , I finished a more ambitious 80" x 36" layout, the Conejos Valley Railroad, and are now working on a more ambitious L-shaped layout, the Sant Fe Northern.
I have been building and running train layouts, from Lionel, to G-, to HO, and now to N-Scale since 1948. I began designing, producing, and selling kits and assembled structures (primarily in N-Scale) a couple of year ago but have droppedf that line.
​
I currently publish my construction results on my YouTube channel, Dean's N-Scale Trains. Please check it out. You can contact me directly at
