Welcome

Welcome to the HO Scale Conrail Blairsville Cutoff by Matthew Miller. This route is a alternate double track route over the Allegheny Mountains starting around Blairsville, Pa and goes clear to Cresson, Pa where it rejoins the 3 Track Mainline. Here you will see the preparation and building of the HO Scale Conrail Blairsville Cutoff. So come along this journey of mine as I plan, build, and have fun.

Dog Leg Lumber

Dog Leg Lumber is a small lumber operation located around Armagh on the Blairsville Cutoff. The lumber companies primary locomotive is a C420 ALCO locomotive that hauls logs down to the lumber mill to be turned into lumber. The ALCO was purchased secondhand from another railroad which it is unknown which railroad it was purchased from as the paperwork was lost over time.


Dog Leg Lumber #268 on the workbench getting the proper decals applied before being pushed into service.


All the decals have been applied and now all that is left to do is put the handrails on and it will be ready to go.

The small lumber railroad operation does have another locomotive that is being built in the home shops of the Dog Leg Lumber Company. A SW7 was purchased along with another switcher engine that are being built into one locomotive.
