As I was wandering, lost in cyberspace, I came across this site, which led to this site.
I guess that, growing up in the area, I was aware of the branch, seeing cuts of boxcars coming out of Moses Coulee, but it really never came to the surface of my semi-conscious mind.
This gives me a new focus for my nascent garden railroad. I had been thinking of trying to model parts of the Scenic Sub of the old Great Northern, but my ground didn’t really lend itself to that. This branch, however is perfect for my ground. I have the perfect coulee up which to run the track.
This is so cool!

edit. Actually, this should probably be in the Prototype section, but what the heck.
