I took some close-ups of the roof and slate shingles on the ground at the North Dorset station. The roof has a reddish tone to it but with some dark weathering in it. The photo below has some of the loose singles still hanging on. Note the original grey tone the roof once was as one sees the covered portions of the shingles. There is quite the difference in tone through the years. Something to think about when modeling your roofs...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 19th 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 extra posts by Don Janes and Keith MacCauley.
