The DEL ORO PACIFIC operates the oldest and largest "G" scale modular layout in the United States, and our modular
design has become the standard for many other modular clubs that have formed around the country. When fully assembled,
our professional display measures roughly 120' X 60' with over 1200 feet of LGB trackage on two main lines and the yard.
The sheer size of the layout allows us to operate up to three trains per mainline
or a total of six trains simultaneously. The modular concept allows the Club to set-up the layout in almost any
configuration imaginable, the only limitation being the size of the structure, and allocated floor space in which we are
going to display our railroad.
The Scenery is one of the major attractions about the layout. Most of the scenery is mounted on what we call "add on" modules
that are mounted behind or in front of the regular modules that contain the mainline trackage. Various members have
scratch-built structures and a wide variety of backdrops. Wait until you see the "forest fire" scenes. Most of these add-ons
feature are animated and are very popular with show visitors.
