I'm in the planning stages of an N-scale shelf layout. I want to represent
a "generic" Q station on a branchline, or maybe a small town along the
Ashland-Sioux City mainline.

I have two Q coaling tower modeling articles--a 40-ton (Railroad Model
Craftsman, May 1985), and the Eola 150-ton (Mainline Modeler, June 1984).
(Heck, I didn't even know where Eola was until I just looked it up in
Mapquest--I'm from Nebraska...) But I have no idea of the size of traffic
each would have served. Could someone clue me in?

Thanks!

Randy (the clueless...)
