i was thinking of doing a layout in N scale based on a west coast theme, and was wondering what road names or rail roads would be seen on a west coast Coastal line... I'm a beginner, so i dont know much about trains or anything, so all help is appreciated. i live in the san diego area, so all the trains i see are amtrak, coaster, and santa fe and BNSF locomotives. also this is going to be mainly a freight operation, as i dont have alot of room to add multiple train types. (which is also why im going to do it in N instead of HO.) i just got back from a trip up the coast to monterey and san Francisco, and was kind of inspired by the scenery up there, with all the canneries, farms and train depots along the highway.
