LDSIG Layout Tours
Additional self-driving layout tour opportunities during the RPM weekend
If you are attending the St. Louis RPM and plan to visit any of the LDSIG Tour layouts, please note that directions to these layouts will be available at the RPM sign-up table and the LDSIG Learning Station.
However, if you plan to visit Brad Joseph’s pre-meet layout on Thursday night, you must RSVP in advance to receive directions. Please email cdjhyoung@yahoo.com to confirm your attendance, and we will reply with directions.
LDSIG is coordinating additional layout tour opportunities beyond the standard RPM offerings. These tours give attendees a chance to visit a variety of model railroad layouts in the surrounding area.
The tours are self-driving. At the RPM, attendees will receive a link with layout locations and directions. The table below lists each participating layout, host, town, and state, schedule, scale, prototype, layout description, and era.
