Nice thread, it very interesting reading about everyone's layouts, so now it's my turn.
My Layout could be best described as a freelanced 1940's anthracite hauler. I tried to draw ideas from the prototype railroads of that era, but focus on the CNJ as my main influence. I came up with a plausible track plan using real towns and cities in geographical order that cover an aria from the Delaware river west to the Susquehanna river in north east PA. My dad "Toptrain" was the originator of the railroads name The "ANNA", when he had an abundance of NYS&W decals and needed to call his freelanced line something. So I'm the second generation modeler of this freelanced road.
