The Aberfoyle Junction, the great O scale layout near Guelph, Ont., had its last open house May 12-13. The layout, which represents southern Ontario in the 1950s, is going to be taken apart and reassembled in the nearby town of St. Jacobs--a process that could take 18 months to two years.
I've posted some photos on my blog from the last weekend's open house at http://cprailmmsub.blogspot.ca/2012/05/last-look-at-aberfoyle-junction.html
If you couldn't be there, or haven't seen the layout in person, I can guarantee that you will be impressed.

| Oh boy St Jacobs is 20 minutes from my Parents house. Now I will have to go home and visit. I am glad the RR could be saved but I am sure it is a lot of work to get it moved. |

John:
Do you have the exact location for the new layout??
I have been working in St. Jacobs so would like to check out the new location. Or will it be in the mill with the current HO layout? |

It's a building near to and across the street from the old mill, I believe. It's not right on the street, if I recall correctly.
