Change modeling focus?

[Charlie B]

Kevin, You are the only one you have to please. My modeling is quite far from the others on this forum. I loosely model the transition era middle 50's but if I want a locomotive that wasn't around yet, or long since scrapped that won't stop me. My rolling stock is PRR power and the cars can be any road. I have a curve on the layout too. It is a horseshoe curve, not thee Horseshoe Curve for the reason you state. I admire the fine details that folks do when the build and I would like to detail stock, but I will be building this layout until the meat wagon comes to take me away. You can always buy any equipment and patch it for your own road. That has been going on since railroads began, and that makes a feaseable way to have your own railroad. 

When I was running the Kiski we converted a bay window caboose into a mini coach by adding windows and nice seats.  I had a guy tell me it wasn't prototype...  .   That is what I call a stretch because it is a prototype. 
Just remember, it is a hobby. It will keep you off the streets after curfew.
