First Plan

Operation oriented.  Sadly, no continuous running but I am hoping I get over this.  A major issue with this plan is that the BNSF interchange just isn't right.

And so it begins....

Trying to fit all of that in 18 feet worth of shelf space.

Same stuff but zoomed in.


I have wanted to get back into model railroading for a while now.  Ever since the McCloud River Railroad was demolished to make room for the office, I have missed having trains in the house.  I was thinking about a nice rural setting with a lumber mill, some grain elevators etc. and then it hit me.  The Richmond Pacific Railroad!  Tons of industries with diverse traffic.  Small enough that a good portion could be modeled close to scale distances.
