Looking for persons near eastern KY intersted in starting a 7.5" gauge outdoor ride on Live Steam and Diesel RR informal club.

Turntables, transfer table and hoist available and rail for up to 3 miles of track. Contact gscale@mrtc.com |

Cool! Suggest you contact some of the folks listed here: http://www.railserve.com/Models/Live_St ... h_America/ for leads. There is a club in Louisville and a couple in Ohio. Other sources of leads are nearby NRHS chapters and local model railroad clubs. I hope you find some willing hands to help you start what appears to be a nifty project. Sloan |

Hi, Sounds like fun. Unfortunately I live in GA. I wrote the books "Civil Engineering for Outdoor Railroads" volumes 1 and 2. If you need help in design, let me know. I would like to make a chapter in CEv3 about tunnels. If you need one designed, let me know. I also have a few chapters planned on grate crossings and trestles and a few other items. Feel free to contact me through my web site. Doug vV www.dougsrrshop.com |
