About the MFR


The Metaline Falls Railroad (MFR) is a proto-freelanced model railroad based on the Pend Oreille Valley Railroad located in northern Idaho and north eastern Washington State. For the very latest on the layout, please visit my YouTube channel and follow along with my Instagram account and Facebook Group.

Today's video is a lengthy three-parter.  Youtube user arthurhouston3 has brought us videos of a lot of really good railroads over the years and in my eyes, this is one of the truly great ones; The BNSF Fall River Division.




These videos are a few years old by now, so I can only image the layout looks even more outstanding than this now!

Movie Mondays #3

The Virginia Midland Railroad is a fantastic little railroad that I've been following the development of for many years now.  Shannon gives us regular video updates on it's development so although I'm only going to post one video here, I highly encourage everyone to check out his massive list of videos available on his channel. I've learned so much and gotten so much inspiration from his work!

Every fan of small switching layouts is familiar with Lance Mindheim. His East Spur layout was a huge inspiration for me as I began to get excited about the idea of building my own small switching layout.  Youtube user brickbuilder711 (who incidentally, like me, shares a passion for LEGO) brings us a fantastic look at Lance's famous Downtown Spur.
