This blog is to document the building of a model railroad, the Paducah and Lake Erie. The free-lance design is set in the current time, and meant to replicate the coal-hauling roads of southwestern Pennsylvania. This version of the P&LE is a bridge line that derives its name from my wife's home town (and well known to Illinois Central buffs) and our former long time residence about 50 miles south of Lake Erie.

Attica Yard Is In


After spending Wednesday train watching, it was back to the basement today and putting in Attica Yard, named for my hometown in Indiana. Two photos -- top, the length of the yard shot from the west end, and bottom, Kung Fu fighter Ken Heyl putting on the final touches. We have the passing siding around Paducah about two-thirds finished (it will be complete before bedtime) and that will about complete Kenny's stay. We have accomplished a great deal.
