[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by bwftex I'm modeling the Texas Midland 1910-1920 Era. It ran from Ennis Texas to Paris Texas right through the heart of cotton country. The TM interchanged with the T&NO at Kaufman. In fact the T&NO took over the TM 1n 1928. Since it hooked up with the six other railroads including the likes of the Texas Midland, Frisco and Santa Fe you could justify quite a few road names on your layout. [/quote] Well, this is my first layout, and I don't want to bite off more than I can chew right now, but the potential is there to expand later on. I do like the idea of at least representing several road names with box cars,etc. right now. One I would like have a few cars of is the Houston & Texas Central that ran from Houston to Dallas. I believe they were taken over by the T&NO in the late 20's before the T&NO went to SP in the 30's. I'd also like to include the Frisco because my Dad remembered it running by the farm he grew up on in north Mississippi. Thanks guys for all the help so far. Now I gotta get busy![:D] Gary
