Most of the naming on my layout revolves back to my college days. In a sense the whole thing does, since it's set in genericish Upstate New York. The passenger station is 'Illium Depot' since I went to school in Troy. Likewise the newspaper office on the layout will be called 'S&W Publishing', named after <i>Statler & Waldorf</i>, a magazine I worked on in college. (Yes, the magazine was named for the muppets. [:D]) <br />Still haven't named the river, which will be a semi-fictitous Hudson tributary, the port (fairly small and modest, really a barge unloading facility) or the power plant. Or the mountains. I guess being unmarried and without kids cuts back on potential names, eh? [;)]
