I am building a short line based in the Sierras and I plan to use light rail, Code 100 in O Scale, because the original used 75 - 85 pound rail. Heaviest loco is an SW9 and the lightest, if I can find one in two rail, will be a GE 44 Tonner. The railroad hauls dimensional lumber, wood framing and other forest products out, and general freight to supply the town in. The light rail helps enhance the feeling of shortline railroading.
