This semi-prototypical scene models the terrain found on US 412 near Orienta, Major County, Oklahoma. It illustrates how the topography turns from red earth and rock capped buttes west of the Cimarron River to tan soil and rolling hills east of the river. Two main line tracks and their shared siding meander through serpentine cuts in the rolling hills while a branch line follows its own path further back.
Look carefully and you can see activity under the bridges and more back behind the bridges.
The red ground seen on these modules is real Oklahoma red earth collected from an oil well location near Woodward, OK.

This scene models the terrain found along US 412 west of Orienta, Major County, Oklahoma, near the ATSF line. Called the Glass Mountains, these red earth buttes with cap-rock rims of gypsum and sparkling selenite crystals rise 80 scale feet from the basin floor. They are part of the Blaine Escarpment, a large gypsum formation extending across much of western Oklahoma along the Cimarron River. The side of one of the buttes is cut out for a western Oklahoma oil well location.
