The San Antonio & Northern Railroad is designed for running trains, both fun runs with long
trains and long runs, and operating sessions with plenty of switching options. Construction on the
layout started in early 2000s and is on-going. The majority of the main layout is built, with
continued work on scenes and details.
The Port of South Texas is a recent expansion with on-going work.
These pictures may give a feeling of what the model railroad looks like. More are coming. We
hope you enjoy these and will come see the railroad in person soon.
A photo summary tour of the layout, showing the overall views and some of
the many scenes as well, as if walking around visiting.
Port of South Texas section, with groups of photos showing the expansion,
from 2022 to 2024, with updates coming in 2025.
Early Years, a batch of older photos to show the layout and early scenes
