3 years ago it started. My parents bought me and HO scale train set. I finally decided if I ever wanted to get any where with what I'm doing I needed to go N scale because of the size of our house. This brings me to last years Febuary. I bought a CP GP-9 in N scale. Now a year later I have started thinking about trains again. I'm on & off (because of the money). So last night I went to Hobbu House in Vanier in Ontario. I'll tell you exactly what I bought. I bought 3 Life like cars... 1 a reefer which is CP and says Mandarin Orange Express, 1 CP reefer thet is green, and one CP Hopper. I also bought some standard code 80 tacks from Atlas. (12 corners & 6 Straights, enough to do a loop) I bought some clump foliage (Fall mix) from Woodland Scenics, some small tree armatures from Woodland Scenics, some coarse turf from Woodland Scenics, and some Hob-e-Tac glue from Woodland Scenics. So I bought a fair amount to get started. I was planning on making a diorama with these just to experiment. I have no idea where to start.... Please suggest any tips and tricks for model railroading, neat ideas or just things to consider. All will be appreciated. I'm just starting, so I don't mind the tips myself.<div align="left"></div id="left">
