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.

Is that the old Canada Atlantic elevator in the background? I wonder when that came down...

Well here is the answer: there were two. One burned down, but the second lasted until 1974.
I’m pretty certain that is it in the background.
