Welcome BMTRAINS. Sounds like you are on your way. I am about finished laying the track on my layout. Can't wait to get it done so I can start to put in buildings and adding scenery. Thats my favorite part. Good luck and visit often.

Welcome!!

If you are quite new to model railroading, may we suggest you spend some time reading here before you cut any wood or drive any screws? We try hard to make sure new folks have a good solid introduction to the hobby before we encourage them to let 'er rip. We have lots of well-meaning guys who will do their best to help you along.

Here's a link to mine. It's currently torn down because we moved last week, but I do plan to reinstall it and get the scenery started. Maybe this will give you some ideas, Dave

Welcome. This is a good place to refine your ideas. I know I'be been able to take that additonal step with the help from the pards here.

(and I'm going to keep hounding them until they get my layout right.)
