WW&F - 2025 Model Railroad Planning

Here in Canada getting copies of railway magazines is getting hard with tariffs and the exchange of the dollar. Hobby shops, book stores, drugstores and grocery stores are dropping these magazines. I can see why with the changed approach MR is taking with returns. The last two hobby shops that I have been in don't carry MR anymore and RMC prices are now at least 15.95 which includes all the new costs the shops are facing. 

Anyhow I recently did find a copy of Model Railroad Planning 2025. I was presently surprised to see a feature on modeling  the WW&F included done by Peter Leach. A great smaller layout built in a spare room. There is hope for us without much room to have a layout and not just build models. Great article and good work Peter...George Dutka

Fairbanks Flag Stop

 

The window and doorway are cut into the styrene. The O scale parts are from Grandt Line.

A bit more work has been done on the tiny flag stop structure...George Dutka 

The photo in the article has the sign about O scale. I plan on making a photocopy of this sign and use it on my structure. Now to figure out what color the structure might have been at one time, I am assuming grey and green. I may just model it as the paint has been worn off.
