Howdy Smalt, don't thank us, but that the good folks at CTT for this forum. But lots of good folks here and lots of good advice with a slight slant toward the "toy" end of the hobby.

So tell us a little bit about your train interests... command or traditional; 027 or scale; new stuff or postwar or both. Despite some of the high stakes legal wrangling [B)] going on in the various train companies, they can't take away my (our) love of the hobby and [:)] running trains.

And I'm as much of an odd ball [8] here as anyone... maybe ever more so! I'm an 027 hi-railer who runs tradionally sized trains, no digital command, off- board sounds, builds some of his own locos, repaints a lot (all locos, 3/4's of cars - I like current roads: Conrail , CSX, NS, CNA) and alters many other cars, enthusiastically uses and recommends DC current to the track (esp. for the lower end can motored spur-geared locos... vastly improved performance.

So if an opinioned nut like me can feel at home here, there's room for more.

Welcome Smalt!

I traveled through Navasota (from Houston) for 7 years while I was at Texas A&M.

Like Brianel says - let us know what your interests are. Join the Coffee Pot when you can.

Regards,
Roy

Regards, Roy
