I prefer to model the period between 1978 and 1980, when I worked for the L&N and the short line IPD cars were every where. Plenty of color and spray paint graffiti was in the future. More rail served industries then than now in this part of the country.
Always a big fan of short lines, but am considering modeling a "composite" of a couple of interesting towns where I worked on the L&N during this time frame. Love the layouts based on Miami Florida, but prefer to model my area of the country.
Motive power - strictly switchers (NW2/SW1200/MP15, etc.) although anything from a GP7 to a GP40 would be seen working these areas.
