Sorry richhotrain I'm not an ho guy---I've been "O" gauge for many years--- started our layout 1999---2007 OGR front cover/feature article also 2007 OGR dvd " Great layout adventures" Vol. six  --- it was 14'X22'---four levels---it's now 19'X28'---I run DCS and Legacy---classified as a "Toy Train Layout" I do a lot of my own animation, the latest in in OGR, on the newstands, Dec. issue.

Do you have a layout?

Hope I havn't overused the competitions name, or I should say initials, but that's where it all happened.

Thanx for the WELCOME!!!

p.s. My lovely wife of 50 great years is responsible for landscaping,painting, fixing up after I make a  mess doing a new project.

Hi Neil.  I'm new to the forum also.  Congratulations on your 50 years.  My wife has been putting up with

me for 11 years.  We were widower and widow.

I'm into 3-rail O.  Don't have a railroad yet, but my head is buzzing with track plans.  I post now and

then on the OGR forum as 'HOPPY'.  I like the CT forum here because, being 59, I have a fondness

for 'the way it was'.  Looking forward to the fellowship here!

Note to Pop and Neil...welcome to the forum, yes indeed. But if you are looking for conversations about toy and model trains check out the Model Rairoad and the Classic Toy Trains forums.  Classic Trains and Trains forums cover the twelve inch to the foot guage which is great for prototyping (and should not be ignored)  but may crush vehicles of smaller guage (if not your hopes of conversations in what you're expecting)! 

RIDEWITHMEHENRY is the name for our almost monthly day of riding trains and transit in either the NYCity or Philadelphia areas including all commuter lines, Amtrak, subways, light rail and trolleys, bus and ferries when warranted. No fees, just let us know you want to join the ride and pay your fares. Ask to be on our email list or find us on FB as RIDEWITHMEHENRY (all caps) to get descriptions of each outing.

Hi Doc, I just saw your post, can't believe I found it by mistake. I thought I had joined the Classic toy train forum and here I am on here. If your grandkids are coming here for Christmas give me a call onmy cell 520-6836 and if not call anyway and come over with your family/friends.

Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year

railpop----sorry for the delay in answering your post of nov. 20.  henry6 says we need to be on the CTT forum---I am on there---slightly confused.  Any way the sooner you start your layout, the happier you'll be---hey your just a kid @ 59, I'm a 1936 model myself.

Happy Railroading, Neil Kresge
