a thing of beauty...


...is a joy forever. A selection of largely scratchbuilt models in 1:64 (S) scale of Newfoundland 42" gauge prototypes. ASARCo., Buchans, GFCR, and CN/NR railways are represented in this display at the Maple Leaf 2003 NMRA convention, Toronto, Canada.

Hello Mr. Cardinal! Most of the cars were built from general arrangement drawings, a few dimensions from real cars, and assorted vintage photographs. The 25 ton ore car was a kit made from original plans; all sold out long ago. Not the same quantity of info as the D&RGW has available...
