JULY/AUGUST 2024: Keith Pashina and Lind Wickersham both built detailed models of the Gilpin Tram’s Black Hawk, Colo., engine house. Keith’s model is HOn30, and Lind built an On2 version. John Hopkins describes a clever diorama of a White Pass & Yukon locomotive that has been thrown in a river as rip-rap. This is followed by Rob Bell’s 15th part of his series on WP&Y locomotives. Pete Replinger’s description of an early Heisler named “Tollie” is charming. Bob Bennett builds an On30 flag stop. Chip Pecere describes his friend Al Stohl’s three On30 Galloping Geese. Looking for a great gift? Try Bert Donlon’s use of display boxes designed for signed baseballs and bats, but with HOn3 trains in them for your friends. James Anton is back with an article about his HO scale Martha’s Vineyard Railroad, followed by Gregg Condon’s MMR suggestions for getting rid of shine on your layout. All this and more in the July/August 2024 issue of Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette!
