FEATURED LAYOUT

Allen Creek and Evergreen Hills Railroad
Owner: Rogher Hildebrandt (Club President)

The Evergreen Hills and Allen Creek Railroad (EH&AC) is a freelance railroad that moves iron ore from two large ore mines in the Evergreen Hills Ore Range of central Wisconsin to it ore dock in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The mines themselves are not modeled but the ore processing plants and loading facilities are.

The EH&AC has its own trackage from the ore range to Sheridan, Wisconsin. At Sheridan it has trackage rights on the SOO LINE to just east of Waupaca where it gets back onto its own trackage again. The EH&AC enters Green Bay via trackage rights on the GB&W to get to its own ore yard. The ore dock is not modeled but, the track to it disappears through a wall and reenters the layout at one of the ore mines making for a 30 carload empty out operation.

An operating session consists of freight locals out of staging (Stevens Point) on the SOO to Sheridan and Waupaca. There are also other GB&W locals and two EH&AC locals on the GB&W out of Green Bay.

The layout is about 20’ & 40’. It is multi-level with DCC controls. The layout is modeled for the 1960’s time period with rolling stock and industries reflecting that period.
