Do you have a made up RR company?

Mine is the Quality Rail. It is the equivilent of the UP. It uses 8000 SD70Ms which are white with blue logos.

My RR uses 55' ACF centreflow covered hoppers and also runs a passenger train called the Highlander.

[SOTATRR]

Mine is named SOTATRR(Some of This And That). As the name implies I'll run just about anything. Colors are Dark Blue background with Mint Green letering. I still need to come up with a logo.

Mine is the Great Dividing Range Mining Company. It was the only company to cross the Great Dividing Range. The Alco PAs have a fat stripe coming from the nose to the tail were it splits in to two stripes going to each back corner. The stripe is blue and the body is red. The lettering is black. The PBs have a large cross on the sideswith each point coming from the corners leading to the middle. the cross is red and the body is blue.The lettering is black. The RR mostly uses Alco PA/PBs and some SD40-2s.

Pacific & Southwest Railroad Co HO
Operates from San Francicso to New Orleans just as if the Espee didn't exist in that area. Subsudiary lines, my sons, cover the California central valley like a tent. We have wild imaginations. All are colored basically Reefer Grey with White roofs and Yellow noses. Striping and lettering colors vary according to the road. Place to go to see double stacks behind Challengers in 2003.

Borracho Springs R.R. Co., or as its known locally, the B.S., serving the Borracho Tequila factory, also serving the towns of Borracho Springs, Purgitory, the F.U.B.A.R. Mining Consortium and the S.N.A.F.U. Mineral Co when we can get the train crews to stop endlessly switching cars at the distillery.
Colors range from grimy black to various shades of rust.

The Cowford and Southern. Cowford is the original name of Jacksonville FL. The C&S doesn't have any of its own motive power. Its owned by Seaboard Coast Line railroad. The line runs from Jacksonville to Orlando down what is now called the "A" line. The towns on the layout match the towns on the A line but the industries are made up to give me plenty of operating. Motive power runs the gamut from GP-9's to U36C's. The layout also interchanges with my club layout, The Cowford and Northern which runs from Jacksonville north into North Carolina.

The BEAR line, (Backwoods Enterprise and Agricultural Road) is still in the planning stage. I hope to go with a 3x10 layout, with an oval leading behind the backdrop to a train cassette for storing complete trains.

I think I'll go for a dark background color (purple, black, navy) with yellow or orange logos and markings).

It will serve stock pens, meat packing plant, grain elevator, cross-docking/transhipment facility, grocery warehouse. Most of my rolling stock is cattle cars, covered hoppers, private label boxcars (1970s), reefers, etc. that support those industries. The businesses were chosen based on 1) what rolling stock I own, and 2) interplay between the industries that will hopefully lead to some cars being used multiple times in an operating session.

Motive power will be whatever I currently own (including 4-8-4, a couple of docksiders, C424, SD??, GP??, F7A&B, etc.).
