Looks like a very neat compact area to model

Are you going to model the stub switchs as in the photo??

Keep us posted!!

Greg, stub switches would be a real eye catcher! But I have my own limit! ;-) Though, hand laying a stub switch is probably easier! On some part of the line, they survived well into the late 60s according to some pictures. There was a nice 3-way stub switch leading to Ste. Anne's car shop.

Stein: Thanks! The fun thing about this small station is that it could be built as a modular layour to be connected with other module. In all honesty, it was just a fun distraction. But in that small place, I feel like the flavor of good old Quebec Harbor is concentrated. I know there's some guys doing modular layouts in my area, that could be a nice idea.

At this point, connecting it to the existing club layout would be almost impossible. But knowing my friends over there, I know the layout could change as fast as Faraway modify is shelf layout!!! 357 Model railroading is a never ending process isn't it? The more information, pictures and testimonies I hear from my prototype makes me want to return to the original idea of the layout: a busy harbor.
