Welcome to the Rochelle Intermodal website, showcasing my N scale layout. This layout is loosely based on Rochelle, Illinois, and has an intermodal facility (based on Global III) and industrial switching areas (based on Caron Road, Rochelle, IL.). This website follows the progress of the construction of my Rochelle Intermodal N scale layout, with photos and videos.

I have just uploaded a new video to my YouTube channel:
This is Part 2 of a demonstration of the Android tablets I use for operating my Rochelle Intermodal layout using JMRI and Railroad & Co.
In this video I show you how to connect the Android tablets to JMRI and give a brief demonstration on using OperationsPro to run a yard switch job using the tablet.
