Cy, hi,
I've got the articles as well as the book published by Kalmbach. Those
materials are helpful, but I try to be precise with my CAD drawings.
And, in the Kalmbach materials, the length of the building is given in
N scale as 5-1/4 inches, for example. Not accurate enough, I don't
think. Plus, I couldn't get the brick pattern established even though
I scanned the printed photos.
Lots of interesting stuff about trackside buildings in that article
series, though.
Side note: I purchased track profile and other materials a few years
ago in order to study the line from LaCrosse to Savannah for an N
scale layout. Love that line scenery-wise, but double track and very
little switching opportunities seemed to make it operationally bland.
I wonder if I was wrong about that. . . . Are there any layouts of
this line out there, anyone know?
Cy, thanks for your note.
