Operations on the Southern Railway
Bob LawsonDescription
Bob continued to learn and enjoy more and more about the Southern. This is eventually how his modeling shifted totally to focus on the Southern. He chose that time period because he always found it very interesting. When he worked on the railroad, he had only been interested in the older equipment and steam locomotives versus the newer diesels. The Southern through the 1940’s was heavily dieselized but because of WWII, there was still a lot of steam locomotives in operation. The late 40’s turned out to be perfect for Bob to model because they still had a great deal of steam locomotives and some diesels – an interesting mix.
