Hello,
I am slowly trying to learn some things about modeling. One of my plans is to build a layout of Utah railroads in 1925 and 2025. As I am still in school, I want to start learning how to do some custom modeling. I want to scratchbuild a locomotive that was built by the Emigration Canyon Railway (see http://utahrails.net/utahrails/emigration-canyon.php). A photo is attached.
My questions are:
Where do I find material on how to get started with scratch building?
Where do I find a chassis, trucks, etc?
I know this may sound quite elementary, but if I can just get a jump start, I could get going.
Thanks
