Scubadude,
Very interesting concept, built at a believeable scale.
Your theme remembered me about Thurso and Nation Valley Railway, a logging railway that existed until 1986 in Quebec, near Ottawa, Canada. I think it could be of interest to you because it was quite active during the time frame you want to model. With Wayne's exhaustive answer, I think it should be helpful. The road was dielized. Pictures being quite modern, they are a good source for scenery information about vegetation, trackage, etc.
