Jens Hensel’s LNAC

The LNAC (Louisville, New Albany, and Corydon Railway) is a freelanced Short Line railroad. In addition to the Short Line LNAC route which goes from Corydon Junction, Indiana to Corydon, Indiana, Jens’ railroad also runs between Louisville, Kentucky and Huntingburg, Indiana. Based on a late 1990’s theme, it is an HO Scale, NCE DCC, 3 level shelf layout.  The NCE Power Cab runs the entire layout supplemented by Cell Phones with the WI Throttle App.  All factories and business names are true to the area. The layout is a point-to-point operation but has continuous run capability.
