Ken Hoganson has been developing 3-rail track plans for O Gauge Railroading magazine readers since 2015.

Using AnyRail layout design software, Ken has created a wide variety of interesting layouts that will fit spaces ranging from a single sheet of 4'x 8' plywood to a small spare room.

This book dispels the notion that O gauge model railroading requires a large amount of space.
