There are many fine options to choose from for a prototype during the ACW era. Some of the prototypes that I am considering or friends recommended are the following:
USMRR - City Point
Virginia Central/Orange & Alexandria - Gordonsville/Orange West
Western and Atlantic
Richmond & Danville
B&O through Harper's Ferry
PRR predecessor
Need to narrow these down to one
Have you considered building a... 'Watch the Trains go by'... layout based on Harper's Ferry Bridge (or if not enough room: a freelance bridge based on the 'Ferry')?
ReplyDeleteI saw an O Gauge layout based on the Barmouth Bridge useing this idea and it looked smart.
Mac.
I considered it, but I wanted the option of Timetable and Train Order
