The New York Central Railroad had one of the only direct rail connections to New York City and more importantly on the island of Manhattan. There where a few yard on Manhattan the yard I focused on is the 30th Street yard. A few years back my friend Craig Bisgeier found an actual New York Central Railroad track blueprint of 30th Street. This large map is the basis of my design. With space in a model railroad always being a problem I was limited to only a few sidings. |
