Modelling the Brockville, Westport and Northwestern Railway

I have chosen to model the Brockville & Westport as if it continued beyond its abandonment in the early 1950's. Research has shown their were large plans to build to Sault St. Marie, with a route map showing the planned extension. Also, there were plans on paper for a bridge connection with the NYC over the St. Lawrence River at Brockville.

I have taken this information and added it to my fictitious history continuing from the Brockville, Westport and Northwestern era as if the railway became a bridge route to the Soo.

I have chosen to model the late 1950's, with the railway continuing with the name of the Brockville, Westport and Northwestern, (shorten to Northwestern) with the extension from Westport to the Soo being built and the bridge connection with the NYC at Morristown and Brockville.
