2005? Well, the Muddy Creek RR consists of a sawmill and its yards, a wye and tracks that dead end with no way to get logs down from the mountain woodlots and no way to get sawn lumber to town. Correcting that is the first goal of 2005. Next is to build the mountain village of Rankena, a company town built by the sawmill owners but with a new industry, the largest tofu packing plant east of the Mississippi River. 3rd phase is Tiger Hill, the 7'x14' iron mining and blast furnace section, loosely based on the mines at Lyon Mountain in the Northern Adirondacks. And, if there is time left in the year, my namesake, the town of Muddy Creek needs to be built, with its paper mill, business district, residential areas, rail yards and the interchanges with the NY Central and the D&H. During the above layout construction, the other model RR venture is continuing to develop a series of laser-cut N Scale structures with which to pay for the losing proposition of running a railroad through the Adirondack Mountains in the early 1900's. Modest goals, I admit. Wayne (the curmudgeon)
