Gentlemen, I need some advice on how to integrate my HOn30 mine train into my future layout. A little background first. My railroad is based in Northern Illinois/Indiana, flat lands, mostly corn/soy bean fields. Not much as far as hills/mountains. So having a mountain isn't a possibility.
I have a rather large collection of these HOn30 cars that I inherited from Mark (MGWSY) when he passed away. I've thought maybe a gravel pit or something like that. My question is how to make this HOn30 line tie into my HO line. What type of facility would the mine cars dump at to transfer into HO cars? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated before I start laying track next spring.
