Jim Kindraka's NYC RS-1 diesel pulls a short train
around the interchange at "City Junction" on the
late Jack Sudimak's layout during the Northern
Ohio S Scaler sponsored Interstate Get Together
weekend in October 2017. The RS-1 was built from
an S Scale America brass kit. The junction on the
layout opens to a recreation of the small town of
Medina, Ohio where Jack Sudimak lived and
worked.
