Do you have a made up RR company?

Victoria Terminal Railway Company.

Operating on former Canadian National Railway trackage in Victoria, BC. My layout is still in the planning phase right now, but I do have a roster built up already. I've got a GP9 and a GP50, and 3 RDC's to be used for excursions.

Laurel and Blue Ridge Railway Co.

A B&O to Western Maryland connection up the Patuxant River valley from Laural MD on the B&O to somewhere about Thurmont on the WM.

HO and still in boxes due to "unfunded mandates" like college for the daughters. It will come out someday. --ralph

This really should be on the MR side of things, however, since it's here...

My home layout is the New Haven's Boston to Providence line.

My club has a "imaginary RR" called the East Coast Lines. We've been using that name since the club was established in 1938, and it is currently imagined to be a "What-If" scenario based on A. A. McLeod's Reading empire of the 1890's (as in "What if the PB&NE hadn't gone under?").

At one time, A. A. Mc Leod owned the Reading, the L&HR, the NYO&W, the CNE, the NY&NE, and the B&M. It was all called the Philadelphia, Bethlehem & New England, and only lasted a few years before it all fell apart due to a financial panic and the efforts of J. P. Morgan.

Our club, the South Shore Model Railway Club (www.ssmrc.org) in Hingham, MA, is currently building our new 50' x 135' layout to represent this "What-If?" In our "reality", the PB&NE did go under, but it was reorganized it as the "East Coast Lines".

Vernonia and South Park. It carries Very Special People!

The SP in the VSP allows me to use SP equipment without much tall tale telling!

Mine is the WESTERN ILLINOIS TERMINAL & TRANSFER RR. [WITT RR]. This consists, at this time of a book-shelf diorama [in work]. The business of the WITT is to transfer freightcars from major carriers to and from a trucking terminal and local factories in the "Western Illinois Terminal Industrial park"

The RR is present-day and consists of very old but reconditioned equipment. The yard switcher is a Baldwin VO1000, the road switcher is a GP38. The yard office is an old caboose and the tool & supplies shed an old Soo Line boxcar.

Since it is only a small diorama at this time, it is static. Eventually it will interchange with my ELGIN, JOLIET & EASTERN.
