| Bill did a mock up of what he thought might fit...I think it looks great. |
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.

Modeling the Bellows Falls Tunnel
Don Jane was over last Wednesday and when we discussed the tunnel scene he mentioned thinking there was enough room for the roadway alongside it. It was something to think about. On Friday I got an e-mail from Bill Gill basically stating the same thing but with a photo shop image he though would work. It sure looks good and I might just give it a go once construction resumes. Here are Bill's comments and photo....George Dutka
"Your existing fascia is the black area below the thin horizontal gray
line on the left and it would be extended upward, as shown, to match the
angle of the new half road. The street and building above that at the
top of the slope would be a photo, expanding the apparent depth of the
scene. Cheers, Bill Gill"
You're very fortunate to be surrounded by some fine modelers!!!... I could use a few up here. for a compact scene, it looks very effective JOHN
