Hi everyone,
I had found a local club near me not too long after moving here and finally decided to meet up with them. I attended a fun run a few weeks ago and tried my first operating session on Sunday. I had a blast! This is a really nice layout with great people in the club. I am very, very fortunate that it is only 10 minutes from my house. Here's a link to the club's website, if you'd like more info: http://laslrailroad.net/
I had used my phone and connected to JMRI as a throttle... pretty sure I'm going to get an actual throttle soon as I didn't enjoy using my phone. I ran two through freights with a couple of stops on each and really enjoyed it. I'll probably run a few more time and/or through freights the next operating session before attempting a local. If I'm honest, I enjoyed it more than I thought I was going to, and can't wait for the next one!
Just wanted to share with you guys.
