The Mogollon Railroad

[nachoman]

Michael, an Armstrong bar is a great idea. After I put my widest loco on there (MDC Shay), I realized that if I put a railing on the deck, it will be awfully close to the side of the loco. Probably best to leave it off, or search for more prototype photos. There was a turntable on the 3' gauge in Jerome, Arizona with a similar 2-stall enginehouse like this. Somewhere, once, I found a photo of it.

I did notice something cool last night as I was putting ground cover around the turntable - this is by far the most completed I have ever had a layout. I'm soon to have almost no bare benchwork left. If I was a LPB on my layout, I could walk from corner to corner to corner through completed scenery. Once I get the enginehouse done, I have two more major buildings to construct, and one is 3/4 done. I will have one more short siding to put in, and after that it's pretty much all detailing and finishing touches. Pretty cool!
