OK, I kind of forgot this topic, so I now decided I need to make some kind of comment: <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by IRONROOSTER</i> <br /><br />My line is named the Virginia and Lake Erie - the "Vale Route". The V&LE runs from Norfolk Va thru Winchester/Harper's Ferry area and Pittsburgh to Erie, Pa. with a branch to Chicago. Of course only part of that will fit in the train room. But I like PRR so it has running rights over the line. Am planning a narrow gauge line based on the Wiscasset, Waterville and Farmington, but haven't decided on a name for it yet. <br />Enjoy <br />Paul <br />[/quote] <br />OK, I live 8 miles from Harpers ferry, so if you want some photos let me know. Second of all, how will you have Harpers ferry and all involved? will you model existing line or have your own. The current line branches with one fork going to winchester, and one following the river towards Martinsburg to Chicago. The only way that I know of right now to get there from Norfolk is to take the line to DC, then go up the old B&O line from there (Through my home town of Brunswick of course, once home of the largest yard in the country..ahem.. for at least year) and on eight miles to Harpers ferry, where the past mentioned split in the line is (without a "Y").........can you tell I am very Accuracy specific about my area? Does NS connect with Winchester? <br /> <br />and now: <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by ebriley</i> <br /><br />Taking a cue from the Pennsylvania Reading Seashore Lines (a real fallen flag!) I have considered doing a "Pennsylvania Santa Fe Midwest Lines" layout. So far I have not done so, however. <br /> <br />Ed <br />[/quote] <br />Hey ed- you'r modeling close to me, "Pennsylvania Santa Fe Midwest Lines" and "Pennsylvania and Santa Fe Railroad" are almost one in the same. (When's the merger? ha ha ha, had to put some humor in somewhere) What would really be hilarious would be if our logo designs were the same. <br /> <br />and finally, I guess I'll get off now and make my layout a website, the url will be: [url]http://trainheartedguy.tripod.com/psfrr/index.htm[/url]
