Welcome Andrew, Andy?

Tell us about your little mini kingdom. That era do you want to build/ are you building. What road name? Will it be set in TN? Talk to us.

 

 i am not really doing any particular area or era. I am kind or sorta modeling it after Maryville, Tennessee. My stepson's uncle lived there and is buried there so that will be my tribute to him. It is currently on a 38" x 72" layout. I am doing N scale. I have the streets drawn out and am working out the placement of things. I put them on paper but it is mostly in my head as i have somewhat of an eidetic mempry so i will always know where things go.

 

DSquareRR is an homage to my Father who was a Chemistry Professor. He always initialed this D2 for D D.

Welcome to the Forum, Andrew!

Your first several posts are moderated, so it make take a while for your posts to appear.  After several times, things will go to normal.

The forum members always like to hear what you're modeling.

We also appreciate pictures if you have them.  Be sure to read the forum directions on how to post pictures.

If you ever have any model railroad problems, there are a lot of people on the forum who can probably help.

My name is Andrew Dever. I retired from Disney World after 35 years in 2017 and moved to Knoxville, Tennessee. I always wanted to build a model railroad layout but never had the time. I was unable to do woodworking because of the Porch Police and HOA did not like it staying on the porch, I started my N Scale layout in our spare bedroom.
