I became interested in railroading just as Conrail was created. For some twenty years I was able to see the trains from the two different houses I lived in. I really liked to watch the big blue engines go by, although it was a treat when other railroad's motive power was in the consist. So, it would be hard to make a model railroad without it being Conrail. My Mother is a coal miner's daughter from Robertsdale, Pa (Altoona area). Robertsdale was a mining company town on the East Broad Top Railroad, the narrow guage short line that brought coal from the Broad Mountain coal fields to the PRR. I've spent alot of time there. So, I'm deciding on how to make a fictitious interchange between the two railroads that are from two different eras. Hey, its my railroad! Jim
