So I wanted to ask if anyone in O scale models lines or railways that have long since ceased to exist or operate? I know a lot of folks model with the big current/past names (or their mainlines) of like PRR, Canadian National, Milwaukee Road, or Union Pacific, but I mean the small guys or extensions long lost to history or amalgamation.
I don't imagine the list is too long as the vast majority of these road names wouldn't be produced by anyone (and might have had to have been custom paint/decal jobs), but wanted to see if anyone has gone this route, or had/planning a train detailed in a scheme that hasn't graced the rails in (mostly) living memory?
Random examples I can think off the top of my head would be the colossal bridges of the Overseas Railroad (extension of FEC), the winding rails of the Prince Edward Island Railway, or even the Pontchartrain Railroad with the early days of New Orleans.
