What made you choose....

Your particular Road: Southern Pacific and California Northern. (SP because I love the colour schemes on scarlet and red, the variety of light packages and other details, and their operational area (I love the west coast scenery/landscapes) . CFNR because while looking for a suitable secondary line to model the SP on, I came across them and instantly liked their green and white colours, the fact they ran SD9's (one of myfavourites), and when they started out, still interchanged and even used lease engines from the SP, and SP had some trackage rights).


Your particular location: California from American Canyon (Napa Junction) towards Willits one way, and towards Davies and west valley sub in the other). I hasten to clarify that I don't follow the prototype 100%, I try to get the feel of the area within the restrictions of my small layout space.

ERA: first half of 1990's , approx 1993 (the start up years of the CFNR, and SP still several years away from being assimilated into the Borg. (UP ) )
