    Hi,
    I'm located in SE Pa not far from the banks of the historic Schuylkill River. From my house I can hear NS trains on the mainline along the river banks.
    I'm starting a small N scale 1880's to 1910's tram layout. It will have a small 15,000- 20,000 bd/ft capacity sawmill, and a standard gauge tram.
    I've been inspired by Train Board member MC Fujiwara's Mt Coffin & Kalama RR. Sorry due to Train Board rules, I can't paste a link yet. Like MC I'm also recycling a previous layout. It currently has Peco code 80 track that is going to be torn out and replaced with hand laid code 40 rail and rough cut ties.
    I'll be starting a build thread soon. I'd like to hear from others modeling N scale logging operations and others modeling early logging railroads in any scale.

    Greatings,
    Loging Loco
