“My Port Destiny RR is a fictional railroad set along the North coast of Florida between Pensecola and Panama City Florida. It was started right after WWII started by the US Navy to give the Navy a secluded naval base.

A connection was made to both Southern RWY in Alabama and the L&N just east of Pensecola , both Railroads where ordered to operate it.

Photo above is at the main dock with Port Destiny Terminal RR’s rebuilt alco rsd4 with an emd engine working the yard .

After the war ended the Navy no longer needed the port and turned over the operations to the Southern and the L&N. The Port grew starting with fishing and canneries and it became a more covient port for Bananas and coffee coming in from South America, and then as the oil exploration in the Gulf of Mexico took off the port recieved a lot of that business.

The layout is currently set in the early 1970’s and is a shelf layout built in a space of 30 inches by 10 feet plus a small staging yard on one in, I have plans to extend the layout in the future.
