When I had my big layout it was the WRLL (Weary Lackawanta Rail Road) now it's called the STSLRR: Short Time Short Line RR- Carpet Hugging at it's best[:D]

Not yet built, but it will be the "Rocky Road", might even put that name on a few cars and engines. In town the streets will be: This way, that way, no way, yes way, way cool, wrong way. The bank will be "The Last State Bank",, maybe with a live robbery scene and a get away using slot cars.
Yes I have a vivid imagination.

I've been thinking about this a while - after not really having a name - but I've settled on the nice railroady-sounding Illinois Pacific.

Jim Duda,

I'd love to see more photos of your layout. Got any close-ups? Is that a Plasticville bridge? Please, post 'em if you've got 'em.
