New england short line


The setting would be some where in New England or up state New York around 1950. The railway would serve both dairy farms and resorts. As a result a passenger train will be made up of milk cars-RPO-streamlined coach/sleeper-local coach, motive power would be a doodlebug or a modified passenger unit like a AA . Freight would be limited just incoming coal and feed and so on. A loco could be a 44 tonner or a small steam engine. To explain the track plan, the longer spur at the left is a bulk track coal dealer ships etc. The spur at the right is the creamery. The fright house is that the bottom left of the crossover. The station is right about in the middle at the bottom.
