I want to design an N scale railroad based on the TH&B. If anyone can point out any good material where I can get information on this railway would be greatly appreciated.
Pogo-p,
Welcome to the MR Forums !
Here’s a link to some articles about the TH&B cited at the Index of Magazines (at the top of this page):

There are articles about layouts, about the prototype and about the rolling stock.

I think there is a TH&B special interest group.
There is a hobby shop in Hamilton that carries an extensive line of TH&B painted rolling stock.
and I think the latest issue of (say it quietly) Railroad Model Craftsman has an article.
There is also a great book called IN THE SHADOW OF GIANTS by Norman Helm ,if you can find it it has agreat deal of info. also there was some back issues of Canadian Raiway Modeller of how to construct the TH&B coaling tower, I can get You more info if you need it.
