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.

Two more boxcar utility sheds

For this contemporary view of the WRD we see the utility shed in use across from the metal shed which replaces my B&M milk platform for the summer months.

I recently finished two more boxcar utility sheds that I will be taking to the shows I help Peter with. Actually the CN one already sold so maybe another is in order. The CN shed is a blue box Athearn shell while the CP is a Train Miniatures shell. It took me a short afternoon to finish this project...George Dutka.

My two Saturday afternoon projects.

Athearn blue box at its best.

A converted Train Miniatures boxcar shell.

This shed had a temporary home for a few days before the Woodstock train show.

Nicely done, I especially like the distressed running boards, nice touch. I think I see a perfect idea for the upcoming yard office on my Arizona Southern.
