<p><strong>Art:</strong></p><p>All great points! I find this place to be a veritable cornucopia of information. And who said they were tired of seeing your great work??? Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.</p><p>Although I'm relatively new here, I've been what I'll call "loosely" involved in the hobby on and off since my son was born in 1986. Puttering here and there...</p><p>I can't say that I've accomplished anything that would be considered worthy of the term "model railroading" as of yet. There always seemed to be major obstacles, ie: lack of funds and/or lack of time... and usually both!</p><p>At this point I have a couple more projects to finish up around the house before I can start construction on my layout. (Which will probably take me many years to bring to some semblance of completion.) But rest assured, as soon as I do start they'll be some photos up on here for ya'll to chew on. (Or spit out, as the case may be.)</p><p>I guess what I'm trying to say is that I appreciate this forum beyond words. There is just soooo much talent here, and everyone is always willing to offer advice, it's just a great place to learn what can be accomplished. I appreciate immensely all the input that was offered on the plan I posted here!</p><p><strong>Chip:</strong></p><p>4 more great points! Once again, I haven't been corresponding here all that long, and I hope that I haven't rubbed anyone the wrong way with any thoughts I've had to offer. (Which isn't very much, I know.) I am hoping, that in time, this will become a place of camaraderie for me also...</p><p><strong>Mr. B:</strong></p><p>Don't kid yourself, <strong><em>YOU</em></strong> are an inspiration! I've wanted to post many times on your great work, but by the time I came across the thread, it was getting old and it seemed everything had already been said. (That Woolworth scene really took me back to my childhood. Is that a Malibu VW?)</p><p><strong>Rrebell & Simon:</strong></p><p>Oh yea... Reading some of the posts is like trying to decipher a foreign language! (Of course, sometimes the one making the post actually <strong><em>doesn't</em></strong> speek de englis too well.) I'm a hunt & peck typist myself, and I can't spell wortha<span class="smiley">[censored]</span> either, so I usually compose in MS Word and then copy & paste. But that spell check toolbar sounds like it could help some.</p><p><strong>Brian:</strong></p><p><span class="smiley">[#ditto]</span> But what personal email? I guess I have no life either...</p><p> </p><p><strong>Hey, we just love trains and this is a great place to be! <span class="smiley">[:D]</span></strong></p><p><strong><span class="smiley"></span></strong></p>
