That is some awesome autumn scenery. I would love to know what was used for the trees.

Beautiful!

My first visit to the prototype South Hills Jct. was in November, 1968,
the day after the election. In my memory, it looked just like the model.
Wish I could do that kind of work.

I saw this fine module in person at the last Villanova meet and it was truly amazing! I sat there, observing it for almost an hour in awe. A real inspiration.

Truly outstanding trolley modeling! Every image compels you to stop, study, and admire.

Stevin,

Bob Dietrich's e-mail is listed in the link below. He is the current President of the East Penn Traction Club.

I sure hope for the sake of the young generation of train modelers, that he writes a book about this much admired South Hills Junction model layout, detailing some of the techniques used. It would be a great asset for all model railroaders.

I hope that he would be agreeable to answering your question about the trees.
