| Alan Anderson's Kristenville & Michelleville Railroad
(HO scale, 16 photos) started in early 1977. Designed as a
freelanced 1920's era, steam powered railroad, it serves the limestone quarries
and Al's Brewery, each located on the outskirts of Kristenville. The Board of
Directors recognized the potential for some logging business and extended
the line into the mountains. The Kristenville Yard was expanded to its present capabilities.
Alantown boomed with the
expanded yard, the thriving K-M Sawmill Co., and the K-M Lumbering Co. The small Michelleville Railroad near Passwater
Interchange was in financial trouble and was bought for incorporation into the
KMRR. |
