Dan Clements' Rutland RR
The Rutland is long gone but not forgotten, a favorite among New England modelers. I was pleased to be able to get the Bellows Falls yard very close to the shape and layout of the prototype, including the bizarre set of diamonds over which the B&M crosses the throat. The logging camp and town of Proctor with its quarry were transposed, but the rest of the towns and the route is quite faithful to the southeastern end of the line. It's always easier for some reason to design track plans for rectangular space, and Dan had a good one, despite the inconvenient location of the door and electrical panel, to enable a full walk-in design.
