Getting Real Column - 8
52: There will be a nice little river crossing scene
here, I hope, separating East Towanda and Towanda
Yard. It helps me to picture things better when I use
mock-ups, so I cut out from cardboard what will even-
tually be the river, and tried a couple of old abutments
at either end of the girders that are just stuck to the
side of the sub-roadbed with tape. Pieces of note
paper were used to give me a feel for the embank-
ments. This river will disappear out of sight off to the
left and rear of Towanda Yard.
