On30 has become a very popular gauge in model railroading. One of the growing On30 specializations is portable layouts. The purpose of this group is to create a forum for sharing all things related to portable layouts including construction techniques, scenicing, electrical, interconnection, and operation. Whether you're new to portable railroading or an old hand, share your thoughts, ideas, successes and (perhaps most importantly) your failures.

This group is for its readership. Members are encouraged to add relevant documents, photos, and links for the benefit of everyone.

The photo above captures most (but not all) of the 2400 square foot On30 display at the 2011 National Train Show in Sacramento CA. Four On30 groups from across California came together to form this massive On30 display. The groups were the California South Coast, California Northern & Cascade, California Central Valley and California Central Coast.
