Gordon North RIP

My good friend Gordon North passed away this last weekend at the age of 81.  Gordon was an outstanding modeler and one of the first to model in On30 (or as Gordon preferred to call it - On2 1/2). His model railroad was called the Denver & Western and was featured in several magazines, most often in the Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette.  He developed an advanced version of the once popular PFM sound, and called his version North Sound.  His model railroad used this system to the end.

Gordon was well known in the narrow gauge community and always willing to help other modelers.  He scratch built almost everything on his railroad including structures, engines and rolling stock.  Gordon never bought kits - just parts.

We will miss you Gordon, rest in peace.

PS: Gordon's son Gary created a web site to commemorate Gordons model railroad -
