Pooled Power

That gets me thinking.... Originally the KP&W was intended to be a small shortline represented by one switcher that would move cars on and off the layout on a staging track and interchange with the PC. I started painting and lettering more and more equipment until the freelance bug had firmly taken hold..so now the Kings Port & Western is a railroad. Since that developed I've been uncertain how to explain its existence in the Penn Central scheme of things. I kind of like the idea that it is affiliated with the Penn Central...that would make it easier to explain why it has running rights on the PC's track and why units from both roads might form a consist.

Thanks for the idea!
