White River Division

Welcome, follow along with George Dutka in his journal which documents the additions and future thoughts for the HO scale White River Division model railroad and to his continuing historical New England railroad research. The White River Division is now in its 17th modeler's season. The "modeler's season" runs from November to April each year. Inspiration comes from the Boston and Maine, Rutland and Central Vermont Railway during the 1950's with additional posts by Don Janes and Peter Mumby.

Gord Taylor

Gord Taylor getting his shot. He traveled with two camera's for slides and B&W.

I just got an e-mail from Bruce Douglas mentioning it is 7 years today that his good friend Gord Taylor passed. Gord had done many trips to New England with Bruce through the years. Today Peter Mumby has Gord's slide collection and we have been posting Gord's work regularly....George Dutka

One of Gord's trips to New England. NH&V 669 at Whitefield, NH on Wednesday May 19, 1998

Thanks Eric, Gord took a lot of photos over his life. He loved the EBT but for some reason we did not find any photos of it in his collection...maybe someone else has these...George
