Walton Lighthouse Prototype for the Walton Community Model Railroad
Posted by OldSchoolScratchbuilder on Sunday, June 11, 2017 5:35 AM

There is a webcam at the Walton Lighthouse that I will be modelling for the community model railroad. This is the original 1873 lighthouse. You can find it online by Googling 'Walton lighthouse webcam'. In two hours (about 9 AM Atlantic time) it will be low tide in this area of the Bay of Fundy as you can see in this capture that I just made.

I am headed to the lighthouse this morning and will appear on the webcam sitting at one of the tables making an artist pencil drawing. I already have many photos from inside and outside but today I'll add a few accurate measurements to the drawing.
