    Question About Chessie System's Baltimore & Ohio Railraod Cleveland, Ohio Sub Division

    There still is a big yard next to the steel mill and Parma yard is still there has 4-5 GP38s or 40 working out of it. 1960s B&O railroad line would not be any different in the Chessie era I don’t think.

There's the hobby aspect of it, but I also have the railroad business aspect too and I try to be somewhat prototypical. I have a number of helpful books on...

    Question About Chessie System's Baltimore & Ohio Railraod Cleveland, Ohio Sub Division

    Hello everyone, I have been an inactive member on this forum since 2014. Been gone for 11 years, but I am back now. I finally started building my first "big" model railroad again. It's prototypical, but not of any actual branch line with any real industries, it's just industries that I made up...
