well I can't help you on most of this stuff... but I would suggest modeling in HO for the size.... although 4 miles of track will take up alot more room than you ptobably expect it to.... but for figure size and what not HO will work well with you and give you a fairly large layout if you have the room for it... I would think that N scale would be to small but would give you more room to work with because it is nearly half the size.... as for Loco's and rolling stock I would think some late model steams and some early transitional deisel would work for that era.... something you might want to look into is try and find the rail companies who used that line in that time period and then see if they have a historical society or try contacting them directly via email.... this option would be alot easier that just doing searches.... I would go to city hall of the city where you are modeling and ask them for the rail company into to see if they knew who ran those lines. <br /> <br />Oh yeah [#welcome] to the forum.... check out the coffee shop for some friendly banter and a nice cup of joe.
