It’s been many years since Gordon Krumrey moved his model railroad layout from his brother’s house in Hutchinson to his cabinet shop in Glencoe.
The layout – a bone-shaped multi-level design – is both a hobby and a getaway from the workday. Using kits to create buildings and a train trestle supporting a bridge, he has logged untold hours over the years on the layout. After the day’s work is done, the model trains are a welcomed source of relaxation for the craftsmen.
