Wow, mdoeler's licenses keep popping back up in the forum, don't they? [:)]

The above thread posted by darth9x9 is the correct one. Just let me know you want one and I'll get it emailed to you! The file requires Microsoft Word.

Modular railroading at its best!
If it has an X in it, it sucks! And yes, I just had my modeler's license renewed last week!

Earlier this year, someone created a "Modeler's License" that people could download, enter their name, and print. I keep one at the Cochise & Western Model Railroad Club and show it to nit-picking critics to shut them up.

Perhaps the creator of the download file will see this thread and repost his link.

It's something that the rivet-counters (usually NMRA "AP" model judges) frown upon...

Yep, and if you don't have that license keep an eye out for that car with red and blue lights that has FME (federal modeling enforcement) on the side.

It's something only you can renew.
Being old is when you didn't loose it, it's that you just can't remember where you put it.

It's doing something that did not really happen, because you want to. I run my GG1 without catenary or pretense of catenary.
Enjoy

If you're having fun, you're doing it the right way.

I just got my license back in September. It was suspended from june-Augus for not paying enough attention to family. It was so hard not being able to operate. LOL But I have it back now!!

It's that magical piece of paper that comes with your first kit and let's you do want you to do to any kit or anything you want on your railroad.

A modeler's license is the same as "artistic license".

Its sort of a metaphor for doing whatever you want on your layout, Like I have an acela train that can stop in Los angeles, but in real life they only run on the northeast corridor.
