5: David Salamon posted this scene of his N scale Deep River
Southern layout. We love the railroady feel of this image!
David says, "The Deep River Southern interchanges with the
Frisco in the town of Green Valley on my railroad. Here the
Deep River Southern is stopped on the mainline while the Fris-
co Freight crosses the diamond. To protect the diamond there
is a manually operated gate (scratch built with some brass sol-
dered together). The Frisco was the first railroad through this
area so they control the diamond, and all Deep River Southern
trains must stop, call and get permission from the dispatcher to
open the gate and proceed across. Also you can see one of the
interchange tracks was pulled up recently and the rails are just
laying around. The little shack is a Blair Line kit with a Classic
Metal Works vehicle, plus modified Atlas telephone poles and
trees and shrubs made using Scenic Express Super Trees. I did
the backdrop to add more depth the scene.
