Hi Everybody,

I'm back after a hiatus, which meant I was away. Some of you with good
memories may remember me as the woman who was researching the Petaluma &
Santa Rosa Railway, including its freight cars.

Well I abandoned the P&SR when I was overwhelmed by the enormity of
having to pretty much scratch build everything for the layout. Though it
has to be said I do still have a lot of info on the rather unique cars
that didn't meet AAR standards for interchange, and therefore never left
the line.

However, if any of you ever want to model a P&SR freight car you know
where to come; though to be honest I think Richard would still be your
best best at identifying the provenance on some of the second hand
purchases.

Now, I'm back into modelling American HO again.

This time the less obscure Chicago North Shore & Milwaukee, but still
pretty much left field traction action/ However, it had very few home
road cars in revenue earning service. So as a consequence I shall be
modelling lots of NYC and PRR cars, along with a supporting cast of cars
from the AT&SF, SP, the MILW and B&O, amongst other.

On that note you can see my humble fumblings at making authentic
American freight cars on my blog here:

Along with some blather about what might make up my roster of freight
cars for the my layout, the fictitious Burnham Yard of the real North
Shore Line.

Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one
set of beliefs are true, and that any others beliefs are mistaken; or
that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use.
The point is precisely for all people to decide for themselves.

Finally a woman! Welcome back.
