Modeling 1850 -1880 Alabama

Larry wants to hear from anyone who models the Civil War era and asks:

“Does any one know a good source for rolling stock that can be kit-bashed to use in the Civil War era? I’m working on my first layout and have chosen my hometown of Tuscumbia, Alabama as the prototype. I will have an out and back between Tuscumbia and Decatur carrying cotton, lumber and goods from the North to Tuscumbia Landing on the Tennessee River for loading onto steamboats. I would love to hear comments from anyone who has modeled this era in the South.”

    If you model HO try LaBelle Woodworking in Cheyanne, Wyoming. Beutiful wood kits of 19th century rolling stock.
