That would be really cool to model, Mike! I've walked the trail between Kent and Ravenna and even today the rail history of the area is vast and very interesting! I grew up down the road in Medina and there is a park there with tracks next to it now operated by the W&LE - used to love sitting near the bridge that crossed a small creek and watch the trains pass by. I have a module loosely based on that scene from the park I grew up with. I would love to see what you end up on this!

While I don't plan to model my hometown (I grew up in Fairbury, Ne which was on the Rock Island mainline from Chicago to Denver) I do plan to make a trip down there and take lots of photos of the terminal, which has been restored and is now a museum. I plan to model the terminal for my layout. My father worked in that terminal, and I have fond memories of going there with him and my little brother and watching the trains go past.
