Great Northern [JJ]
This channel is all about trains and model railroading. The videos here have been uploaded to inspire others. I will periodically upload new videos as time permits as there is no cadence to the uploads at this time. My layout spans several eras from early diesel 1950s to the modern era. The location is a fictionalized Pacific Northwest location centered near Portland Oregon and the Columbia River Gorge.
