Address

  • 422 Cothran Road, Dawsonville, Georgia, 30534

Layout Description

  • This layout uses the TOMA approach. It rewrites history and has the railroad discussed in the newspapers of the 1920's coming to my adopted home of Dawsonville. The railroad depot is across the street from the courthouse where we got married. A scratch build challenge for the future.
