Hello,Im 39 years old and live in a small town(pop.1100)in central Missouri along the bank of the Missouri River.I live in a 100+year old house just over the bluff from a UP mainline that paralells the river.Every few hours I hear trains!!The "downtown" area is between the tracks and the river.It kind of looks like the Merchants Row I and II +an old mill with silos at one end and an old lumber co. at the other.This will be modelled on my HO layout I started about a year ago.Oh there goes another train!!First you hear the horn then the RUMBLE.Love that ,anyway,the layout is a self that goes around the parimenter of my second story.Basically its two rooms 13.5' x 13.5' each.Each room will be a phase.Phase one is ready for track laying.Ive cut one of the portals into phase 2 which runs behind my closet as it enters the room.I plan on pretty much finishing phase one before I start on phase 2. The layout will be,for the most part,freelance.Set in the 1950's and will run UP and Santa Fe. <br />As for me,my other hobbies are: Building large R/C ships <br /> History <br /> Singing 50's-90's rock music <br /> Playing guitar <br /> Restoring a 100+ year old house <br /> <br />
