    Building the North Texas Railroad

    Can't agree more with that ending statement. Took me too long to finally build something. I wish I had done so sooner!

    In Between Layouts "Layout"

    Here is the current version of the small switching layout. This might be as done as it gets until I move. It looks bare, but that is how it is going to look for now. I am not happy with how it looks overall(I am a perfectionist after all), but I have to stop myself from putting in more work...

    In Between Layouts "Layout"

    She enjoys it quite a bit. Some of our best memories from college together were going to train events together. California State Rail Museum, Redwood Valley Railroad, Walnut Creek Model Railroad Society, Golden State Model Railroad Museum, and tons of local train shows. She is a great sport

    What are you buying this Month?

    Just received my first brand-new locomotive, a Bowser Spokane Portland and Seattle RS-3. I bought this with some of the cash from my eBay selling/downsizing of my collection. This is easily the nicest and most detailed engine in my collection. Ran it in today, and it is easily the best runner in...

    The College Kid Layout Building Saga - End?

    Since the layout has been taken down, I have been wanting to do some train stuff in the meantime. I am not sure if some of you have seen, but I have started a new thread on my new "Layout" in between layouts. Check it out here. It should be fun to have something in between a larger setup.

Many of you have followed along with the process of building that layout over on my other layout thread(Linked here). Since many of you wanted to follow along with my layout journey, I wanted to give the...

    The College Kid Layout Building Saga - End?

    Well, the layout is gone: Tears were shed, but the layout is in the dumpster. All good though. I am working on downsizing simultaneously, so if you are interested in picking up some of my spare train items, please check out my eBay and see if there is anything you want, shoot me an offer. I...
