Stony Creek & Western

Company History: The SC&W is a fictional freelance railroad across Colorado and Utah connecting with the AT&SF at Middletown, Colorado (staging) and runs westward to Salt Lake City (staging). The D&RGW has trackage rights from Toluca to Pagosa Jct. The D&RGW narrow gauge runs from Stony Creek westward to Sierra Vista and into Grand Junction (staging). The mainline of the SC&W is 485ft and the D&RGW narrow gauge has a mainline of 157ft. The railroad is mostly mountainous terrain. The scenery includes numerous scratch built structures and is about 95% complete.

The railroad consists of two main yards and eight towns and five additional towns on branch lines. The main business on the railroad is sweepers and way freights with two unit coal trains serving five mines. We also have a good passenger business…running seven passenger trains, most of which do switching along the way. The entire SC&W mainline is CTC and the D&RGW trackage is dark territory. Motive power is first-generation diesels, the era being about 1960. Extended Operating Sessions consist of 29 standard gauge trains and 5 narrow gauge trains.
