Modelling the Dominion Atlantic Railway

The DAR layout at the Apple Capital Museum in Berwick

The Dominion Atlantic has been the subject of model railroaders for many years. With it's relatively steady elevations, multiple branches, pastoral scenes, spectacular bridges, interesting rolling stock and mixed train operation, the Dominion Atlantic offers a variety of opportunities for prototype modelling.

This section has been put together to show the various prototypes that ran on the system and to offer suggestions and advice for the best way to purchase, build, kitbash or scratchbuild rolling stock and structures for your personal version of the Dominion Atlantic.

We also share modelling efforts at any level for other modellers to enjoy and examine.

You can explore some DAR Model Railway Layouts here or explore the categories below.

We invite you to join conversations regarding modelling in our forum in the Hobby Room - Model Railway Chat forum.

As this is a new section as of today, it's structure will develop on an Ad Hoc basis. For now, we will organize the modelling efforts already on the wiki. We intend on this category being a landing page for all the other categories under the modelling banner. This page should not contain much more than it does now except for pointers and menus to the appropriate sections we will create as we go.

Initially, for modelling sections such as Locomotives, Passenger Cars, Freight Cars we should create the same category names as our prototype but prefix the category with "Model". Therefore a section on Steam Engines should be "Category:Model Steam" or "Category:Model Passenger".

One thing the we would as for sure and that is if you have prototype details and information to add to any subject under modelling, it should also be in the prototype page for that particular subject. We don't want the modelling section to have details the prototype sections do not.

Happy Rails!
