FeedmanOGR Forum Member

Well after countless hours on google I just can't seem to find what I'm looking for and that is a model of the "J" tower that once stood at the west end of the Willard yard, has any one ever built bought or seen an o guage version of this iconic tower?

i could probably make this as a kit but i would need plans as well as how many others would be interested in this. look at the bowling alley post to see what type of workmanship i am capable of.

That would be cool I have seen the Bowling Alley it's very nice as for plans I will see what Dad has for pictures of it, I was young when dad worked in that tower and was only in it a few times

Yep exactly it sat at the corner of town line 1500 and section line roads until they expanded the yard and put an overpass in
