(...) I agree with other posters about the nice things about your mountain, as well as the not so nice things. Here's the biggie... shape and size Railroads avoid mountains like the plague as they are expensive to get over around or through. (for (...) (21 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)
