Thanks Frank. I base a lot of why I model what I do off of history, not just local to my locale but also railroads that would be similar in size and around the same era. My railroad is fictional but has many ideas and certain cues from the Green Bay & Western (region), Soo Line (region and type of freight hauled), Nevada Northern (locomotive styling and type of freight hauled), Mineral Point & Northern (locale and type of freight hauled) and a few others. I'm keeping the idea that the 20's were a prosperous time on my railroad with older locos rebuilt and some facilities totally rebuilt, then re-emergence from the stock market crash with lead mining and paper production traffic picking up in preparation for WW2.
