Along the Line_10
Image information
After our visit to Birdsboro, we conclude our first day of railfanning Jerry Strangarity's Reading layout by heading over to the crossing at Wertz Feed and Grain. We're rewarded with this shot of an NMj caboose passing the mill.
The Wertz Mill is a prototype structure, and still stands along the Lebanon Valley Branch in Wernersville, PA. Jerry's model is not an exact replica, but follows the general lines of the prototype. Jerry's construction techniques for this building were featured in an article in the November, 1991 Railroad Model Craftsman.
