Hey man, I'm building a layout of my freelance line, the Ashville, French Broad,and Mt. Airy, better known as the Apple Valley Road. Its set in 1950,with three 2-6-0 camelbacks, a cab foward, two berkshires, a mountain and a consolidation, plus four 2-10-0's. The line hauls timber, paper, gravel, and of course apples. The line runs from Hendersonville NC toMt.Airy NC, crossing the great craggy and black mountains. The Blacks are home to Mt. Mitchell, the highest peak east of the Misissippi river, at 6,684 ft. It interchanges with the southern, the clinchfield, and the Norfolk and Western's Shenandoah extension that was built to Mt. Airy. The AVR, N&W, and Southern run a joint train called the Cherokee, that runs from Hagerstown to Atlanta. The layout will include the Great Craggy viaduct, the "Rio Grande rock", and the crosing of the linnville gorge on a massive arch bridge. Thelayout will be built in an 8 x 16 foot space with a mushroom design. Along with that will be a beautiful B&O blue pacific with a nearly all dome consist. The cherokee will have modern amtrak two level equipment for tha modern look, that being pulled by an N&W class J <br /> <br /> <br />The point is, I'd like you to give your opinions comments anything that might be of help. Perhaps you modelers that aren't thirteen and working in an unheated, unairconditioned garage can give me some additional inspiration before I lay down the first spike.
