"Well, the Muddy Creek RR..." <br /> <br />"Next is to build the mountain village of Rankena, a company town built by the sawmill owners but with a new industry, the largest tofu packing plant east of the Mississippi River." <br /> <br />"3rd phase is Tiger Hill, the 7'x14' iron mining and blast furnace section, loosely based on the mines at Lyon Mountain in the Northern Adirondacks." <br /> <br />"And, if there is time left in the year, my namesake, the town of Muddy Creek needs to be built, with its paper mill, business district, residential areas, rail yards and the interchanges with the NY Central and the D&H. " <br /> <br />My appologies to MuddyCreek for butchering up his post, but the above quotes were needed to ask my newb question: <br /> <br />Where do all these names come from? It's not just from this poster, but everywhere. I've seen people talk about their layouts with all different kinds of names, towns, and railroads I've never heard of. Are these actual names, or are they just made up?
