I'm pretty new to model railroading. I never bought the big Walthers catalog as I told myself everything is online, and it was so expensive for a "catalog." But I broke down and bought it a while ago, and just left it in the drawer. <br /> <br />Early today my wife says she's taking the boys to say hi to Grandma. I throw the rake back in the shed, and I sit down with my favorite beverage in the easy chair with the Walthers'. <br /> <br />Hours later, my head is all full of ideas for a model railroad. I want to knock down a wall in the house, combine two rooms into one train room, make two of my sons bunk together in one bedroom. I see forested mountains turning into deserts, finely detailed coal mines, my own paint shop in the garage, etc etc etc <br /> <br />That Walthers' book made me feel like a greedy kid looking in a toy catalog at Christmas time. Or maybe it was the multiple favorite beverages I had. <br /> <br />Ken <br />
