Is there anyone out there that is into Model Railroading? My Great Uncle was an engineer with the Reading Railroad in Pennsylvania and helped me build an HO scale layout in my basement. That was when I was a teenager. Due to costs and work, I have not been able to build another layout, but still have the buildings, engines, and some of the new Broadway Limited steam engines with full sound effects. One day I'll get back into it when I have excess cash.

my fathers been in it since he was young and when i was like 3 years old i had my first HO scale layout called "up and over" on a 4x6 then when i got older i took the same 4x6 and did alot of mountains and lakes. now i have a 4x8 running a N scale but there is nothing layed down yet. with moving, work and the other normal day stuff i dont have time anymore. but id like to get back into it. p/m me if u want to meet up sometime and b/s about trains. ive got over 23 years experiance with it.
