Jim-

 

Just to echo everyone else, thanks for posting the photos of your layout.  Your modeling is great, and your scratchbuilt structures are very realistic.

If the moderator has permitted, attached are three photos of my layout.  This is the final section to be built and represents Waynesboro, VA.  The C&O crossed over N&W here, there was a N&W yard, with a turntable, and interchange with C&O.  There were many industries in the area on the north and south belt lines. Additionally, N&W served the DuPont plant and other on-line industries.

 

The N&W and C&O depots, and surrounding areas, are all scratchbuilt.  Likewise, the houses are scratchbuilt and represent what is/was there to be best that can be determined.

 

I have visited this area several times; however, most of the on-line industries, except for Dupont, have been gone a long time; there are remnants of the industries on the Belt lines (the C&O Freight House is still standing); I would be interested in any photographs of the area, particularly as they relate to those industries served by N&W.  I know there was a large coal trestle and team track area that is to the north and west of the N&W depot; there were also some industries south of the depot and I would love to find out more about them.

 

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
