After reading another thread in the MR forum it gave me an idea for this thread. [:0] [;)] <br /> <br />When Conrail was split up how did it effect modeling for you? Do you or did you model Conrail? Or perhaps you modeled NS or CSX. If so, did it change your layout any or do you plan to in the future. Of course many people model fallen flags and it would certainly be "more than ok" to continue modeling the layout the way you did preConrail merger. If the split up changed your modeling how so? <br /> <br />In real life we all know the merger has greately effected Eastern railroading in many ways, many of them very negatively. From a railfanning point of view the merger was a diaster. It has taken much traffic from the Suzie Q. It has taken away a good class one railroad and the opportunity to railfan it. But mergers seem to never be kind to the merged road and this certainly is the case for the ex-Conrail lines. <br /> <br />With all that said, back to modeling. I forgot to include the Suzie Q in the modeling questions above. Some people may have or still do model the Suzie. That is just fine in my book. (I hope they include some of the Q's Alcos [;)] ) <br /> <br />Anyway let's hear your thoughts on these questions. [:p] [8D] [;)] [:)]
