Thought I'd add a little bit more info regarding Westbrook. Although I took the name from an actual location in Maine, the layout is intended to be freelance.
Westbrook (the layout) is intended to be the terminus of an old branch line, hence the siding and run-around facility for locos. Not shown on my plan will be an old weed covered station platform, now used infrequently as a team track, and a small yard office on the site of the former depot building.
Small branch lines proliferated back in the day, with many being closed by Guilford.
