If the ceiling\floor is high enough the oppurtunity for a multi-level layout presents itself. Good luck and let us know how it's going.

Like i said that was a guess on the size.... im not too sure. All I know is that was one of my search criteria when looking for a house..... a basement! Im thinkin its more like 24x12 if not longer. Ah well....... again thanks for the support from everyone!

Im guessing that your wife doesnt like trains....
That's nice.
Just kidding! Sounds great!
John, congratulations on the space and the new layout. Keep us posted.
Now, if I only had a full basement.......

I'm sorry, you can't model the Reading.....I'm already modeling that. OK, OK, I'm modeling Pottsville and St Clair, so you can have the rest.
I'm just reading the story of Port Morris in RMC - some terrific pictures.
Well its a townhouse so its not a full size home, but its ok for what im lookin for right now. 171sq ft is plenty for me as of now, that and im not sure if there is more..... im just guessing. As far as what I want to model goes.... I live across the street from the old reading line that went from philly to bethlehem PA. The trackage is now owned by SEPTA and is leased to East Penn RR. I figure i could model that or... I grew up in Sussex County NJ and the DL&W had the great Lackawanna cut off that ran from Port Morris NJ to Slateford PA. as well as the old sussex branch line. There were other railroads that crossed the county like the Lehigh & New England (LNE), Lehigh & Hudson (L&HR), and the New York Susquhanna and Western(NYS&W). BTW if you want to read some history about this area, I suggest http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lackawanna_Cutoff , or http://www.gsmrrclub.org/HISTORY/history5.html or http://dlw-sussexbranch.com/ or http://lhr.railfan.net/home.htm#PAGES ok ok im getting outta control here...lol. Neways thank for the support guys.
