Real newbie here and would love some advice.

Hi Folks,

Just a bit to say hi to everyone and I'm hoping I can find some answers to my questions. I just picked up my first train set (N Scale) and wow... I'm like a kid all over again. I always loved trains and in my youth actually rode a freight train starting in Yuma AZ and wound up in Southern California. Long story for another time.

I'm very interested in putting together a group of trains along with some building styles that existed in the southern U.S. during the 20's and 30's and haven't a clue as to where to look in order to purchase these items. I'm a big fan of the music from that era so something like this would make a nice compliment to my studio.

Are there any online merchants that carry such items? I'm suspecting that there are as I've seen lots of folks building layouts from various time periods.

Any advice would certainly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Toby

Hi Toby & Happy Holidays,
Welcome to the forum and to this great and fascinating hobby!

Yes there is plenty of stuff available for the time period your modeling both in equipment
as well as buildings/kits/pre-built of all types.

I have some items available if I can ever get my Foothill Station web site put together but don't let that stop you from inquiring about what your after.
