Rio Chama & Southern
Welcome to my Rio Chama & Southern Railroad! The RC&S is an Hon3 imaginary branch line where the D& RGW, the Rio Grande Southern and Colorado Southern intersect. Mining and lumber are its primary revenue.
The reality is, it’s just my interpretation and my imagination of what it might have been like. I’ve been building layouts and modeling miniatures for about 40 years now. My first Hon3 layout was featured in MRC, and I want to share what I’ve learned in that time, to my fellow modelers. I’m no expert, you learn something new everyday, but maybe you’ll find something here that helps you along your journey.
The RC&S is just getting started so hop aboard and let’s go for a ride! Kenny D
