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.

Green Barns

This barn is between Woodstock and Paris, Ont on Dec 11, 2020. The paint has really faded away and gray boards are now appearing.

One color of barns that is not modeled all that often is green toned barns. Here are a few from around Southwestern Ontario that might inspire you to get out the green paint...George Dutka

On a trip to visit Don Janes on June 18th 2021 I came across this green barn that could use another coat of paint. It is along Confederation Rd which runs parallel to the CN main line from Strathroy to Sarnia. The tracks are a short distance behind this barn.

Another view of the barn above.

Once again along Confederation Rd I found another green barn on June 18th 2021. The paint is a lot better shape on this structure.
