What's on these pages? These pages are dedicated to one of my center of interest: railways (or "railroads" for our friends from across the Atlantic) and model railways. Unlike most mainstream railfans, my preference goes to "on the fringe" railways: mostly disused, abandoned, long forgotten railways (especially underground) and in railway experiments such as pneumatic railways, cable hauled tramways, early systems of electric traction, etc. Like many railfans, I am also a railway modeller with a special interest in narrow gauge railways in On3, On30, On18, Sn3, HOn3, Nn3 and HOe scales. Sources: Information contained in these pages are coming from a variety of sources including books and videos from my personal library, as well as information gathered on the Net from Usenet, Forums and Web pages. Tip o' the hat: To the following individuals who have constantly supported this site from its early developments in 1998:
