Now out in the RWA file library is the O'Dell County Traction Company. It is a small (emphasis on small) fictional traction route which originally appeared in Model Railroader. It was a project layout built by Bruce Goehmann which featured between the November 1988 and March 1989. It was touted as a model railroad for people with a premium on space, only occupying a 3'x6' footprint. The route attempts to emulate the arrangement and feel of the original. There are a small number of industries present, and a few designated car stops. "Staging areas" are also included for both the interurban/streetcar and the steam railroad which runs along the river and under the interurban. The route features a number of custom assets built by Jonathan Peters and mrbob19, and to them I am grateful.

Very well done!!! **!!bow!!** !*salute*! Can't wait to see your interurban, all those teasers over the years are killing me! *!greengrin!*

For the scenario I am missing some "Reefer 40t Steel CBQ" wagons apparently. No idea what those are, but I'll take a spin anyway ;)

I would suspect that is also from Golden Age Rails.

You are correct that those are from Golden Age of Railroading. Found here: http://www.golden-age-rails.com/packsle ... eefer.html
Additionally you will need the Milwaukee Boxcars, found here: http://www.golden-age-rails.com/packsle ... w-ps1.html

My apologies for leaving them off the list. Enjoy the route!
