Dave Rickabys Stephenson, Cedar River & Eastern Railway On30 scale.

"The layout is 61' x 14'. The scale is On30. O scale is 1/4"= 1ft. The n stands for narrow gauge. The 30 is for 30" between the rails. Some refer to it as 2 1/2 ft gauge. The name if the railroad is the Stephenson, Cedar River, & Eastern Railway. The mile shoreline serves Stephenson, MI, where they interchange with the Standard Gauge Chicago & Northwestern Railroad, Palestine, MI, where there is sugar beet loading and a charcoal kiln operation. At North Lake Jct the railroad serves the Westman sawmill and interchanges traffic with the narrow gauge Westman Dam Lumber Co Railroad. This railroad brings down logs to the sawmill from Camp Teotwawki at Gourley, MI. At Cedar River we encounter the Eastern part of the name, which represents waterborne traffic on Lake Michigan. I started building the layout in 2016". Dave Rickaby graciously shared his layout with Jim and I while we were in Marinette for an appointment! I need some work on my videoing but I enjoyed the demonstration of Daves layout and look forward to seeing his railroad develope. We did find the coal tower Dave mentioned and got there just at dark. The rails are CN's former Chicago & Northwestern line to Marinette.
