Structures
Most railroad structures, such as switch towers, have been
painted in New York Central colors. Other structures are either
from kits or scratchbuilt. Each structure and locomotive has
been weathered to depict heavy use. This was done by air-
brush, artist acrylic colors, and powdered chalk for the build-
ings. The locomotives were done using a wash of India ink
mixed with alcohol.

crosses the truss/deck timber bridge that towers high
above the serene waters of Lake Placid on its way
to deliver mail and passengers to the station in the
township of Lake Placid.
