This is a section of Bob Hayden's C & DR layout showing the variety of lineside structures he uses. The two-tone one in the middle is painted the familiar C & DR gray/green.

C & DR #25 started life as a N scale Minitrix FM diesel. I changed it to HOn30 by adding the AHM HO cab and changed the position of the handrail. It still runs great after more than 27 years. Bob Hayden built the pulpwood car from scratch. The boxcar is a Polymold kit.

This is an HOn30 Caboose made from a Polymold kit. They were offered during the early 1970's, Along with the caboose they offered a boxcar, and several passenger cars.
The kit consisted of six polyester resin castings, bits of wire, and instructions. With a little filing and a lot of 5-minutes epoxy they made a nice looking car. Bob and I used N-gauge passenger car trucks and N Kadee couplers.

Here's a photo of Dick Patterson's HOn30 diorama based upon the Dolly Varden mines. Dick built the large two-sided diorama based upon information from the book, "Steel Rails & Silver Dreams" by Darryl E. Muralt, published by Benchmark (Gazette).
Everything on the layout except track and engine mechanisms is scratchbuilt.
