WSLC Locomotives and Cars                                    Railway Pages Index

These are my personal reference pages based mostly on photos of models taken from the websites of fine scale model suppliers. Photos of models are usually better than extant photos of the original; they are often in colour, have good lighting, appropriate viewing angle, attention to detail, and no obstructions in front of the critical part. History and colour photos on this page from http://www.i-sng.com/ .

"I am a life-long model railroader and have modeled in O27, HO, HOn3, and N Scales. Failing eyesight brought me to G Scale. My father started me in model railroading as a tiny tot in 1944 - he scratch built his first locomotive in 1940, the year I was born, and I still have this loco on my mantle-piece. I am a Life Member (#517) of NMRA, a member of the Rocky Mountain Garden Railroaders (Calgary, Alberta), and have toured a lot of model railways, railway shows, and garden railways. I have never seen a model railway I didn’t like. An extensive library of railway magazines and books, covering topics that appeal to me, sit behind my office desk, ready to be put to use at a moments notice. I hope these pages can communicate to you some of my accumulated experience, my successes and failures, and my love of model railways."
