While I was at the Springfield train show I made a trip over to the train station to see the work done inside. The last time I was at the station it was in disrepair. It looks great now. But what I am looking at today is the site of the B&M roundhouse site. I was following the tracks near the river when I noted a B&M logo that has almost faded away on a railroad bridge. When I looked toward the river I realized I was looking at some old railroad structures. A quick trip over and through the open gate put me infront of what I believe was the site of the B&M shop. Not a lot left and in other uses today I realize how this area once was...George Dutka
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.
