Today's activities started with a quick check of the contest entries, (sorry no photo's) Before departing on the Peninsula Narrow Gauge tour. What was surprising is the lack of entries. I suspect people just want to size up the competition before they enter.

This tour started with a trip to MMR Bob Brown, (pictured below) of the Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette's On3 Tuolumne Forks layout. 

Bob's Sierra logging and mining railroad is very well known, and features a saw mill, stamp mill, resort hotel, and many more scratch built models.

Bob's construction techniques yield some of the most convincing scenes I ever seen, and these photos are just a few of the 60 or so I took of this layout.

I am always curious of what a Master Model Railroader's workshop looks like, so I manages these: He's definitely setup for building whatever is needed in his models.
