What Era, Railroads, & Locomotives are you set on?

[RobertInOntario]

On my main 4x6' layout, the main setting is Somerset, England in June/July 1959. The railway modelled is the Somerset & Dorset line during the late British Railways steam era. I chose 1959 partly because it's the year in which I was born but also because the Somerset & Dorset Railway was arguably at a peak during the late-50s -- i.e., it was heavily used for both freight & passenger trains, with a wide variety of steam power. June/July is also one of my favourite times of year and it's easy to model the bright green scenery.

Having said all that, I also have enough rolling stock to model southern England in the 'teens, '20s and '30s, as well as rolling stock to depict the Midlands and northern England/Scotland anywhere from the '30s to the '60s. Also have North American stock as well. It just depends on what mood I'm in!
