From The Depot

Bill Sturges has spent several years
video taping the trains that travel a
section of Southern Pacific's Roseville
to Oregon "mainline". From the front of
his model railroad shop "The Train
Depot" in Redding, California, Bill has
caught a wide variety of engines and
rolling stock.

This tape is for anyone interested
in railroads, but is especially a great
resource for modelers. The color
schemes, weathering, graffiti,and load
details seen are an encyclopedia of
information for any modeler wanting to
add authentic details to their own
layouts.
