    I just ran across this board a few days ago thought it was time to join in, I'm modeling the Southern as though there was never a merger, I guess you could say its freelanced? Any one here from the South or interested in the Southern?

    Welcome aboard. I model the Southern with a strong secondary interest in the Seaboard Air Line. I really like pulpwood racks and SOU's bay window cabs! Most of my models are N; however, I'm increasing my HO collection because I want to do a bit more detail work on my locomotives and rolling stock.

    Here's hoping that Atlas releases some high hooded GP38s! I could use some Southern and modern NS units [​IMG]

    Hi Robert! I model the N&W in the late 40s early 50s, But I also like the Southern in the same era. The Southern had some really neet steamers. [​IMG]..........Mike

    Robert,
    Welcome, I've traveled the Southern for 40 yrs and it's great line, notwithstanding mergers etc. Their steam engines were some of the most powerful, except for the Ma&Pa on the east coast.
    Any help I can offer, just call. Find me on the DCC forum



    ------------------
    When in doubt, empty your magazine.

    That's what happens when someone spills glue in the monestary.

    Or the syrup...

    Georgiasysrr, just cause you model the Southern doesn't mean you can't just post in one forum though. Feel free to throw your 2 cents whenever and wherever. More people doing that will liven up the board.
