Pine Bluffs Gallery
Begun in 1994, the Pine Bluffs & Ceda Falls Railroad was created by the American Section of the Alton Model Railway Group, and evolved out of the design criteria the section set down for construction of a modular American exhibition layout. Our aim was to create an easily expandable design, that would allow members and the section to build and exhibit a variety of models, based on the same basic design and construction methods.

Alton section
Alton is the second OO gauge layout to be built by the Group. The layout is based on Alton station as it appears in the present day, enabling the section to display a wide variety of stock, including standard mainline passenger trains, and the more unusual locos seen on The Mid-Hants preserved railway, which also runs into Alton station.

The website aims to provide information about the Group and what we do, but we have also included content that we hope will educate, enlighten and even amuse.
