Earlier this year I thought I was done with my historic model railway, of which the prototype is the Copper River & Northwestern Railway, Chitina Local Branch, which operated primarily as an ore carrier for Kennecott Copper from 1911 until 1938. <br /> <br />But after much consideration, I have decided to build an entirely separate line using 10 foot and larger diameter curves for larger engines and rolling stock than is on the present line with its 8-foot diameter curves. Also, the new line, which will probably take three years to complete, will be an up-to-date Alaska Railroad set-up. <br /> <br />Structures on the older section are 1:24. The modern one will be in the same scale. Among the models contemplated are a modern Alaska wilderness hotel and a section of the Alyeska Pipeline. <br /> <br />
