Thanks for the compliments everyone.
Buzz:
I think you're right about the sawmill. Should probably just concentrate on it and the town. I wasn't planning on it being incredibly huge, just a small simplified operation. Haven't done much research on this yet.
Jonathan:
Haha. I could do that. Not sure it would fit in my grand scheme though.
Blink_182_Fan:
The only reason I chose to use 18"R was simply due to conserving space. Currently, I don't plan to run anything larger than what I have now. Obviously the longer equipment does look funny on the tight radius, but as I mentioned, I limited its use to areas than will be hidden from view once the scenery is complete.
ABC:
Not certain on this, but I think you may have that backward. I do have documentation they they pulled the "Texas Chief" in the early '70's in Amtrak service. I took some artistic license and have them pulling some Santa Fe streamliners. I'm not a stickler for 100% prototype accuracy.
