Teen Model Railroader Place

Since there is a teen railfan place, I thought it would be smart to dedicate a model forum to the teen audience also. Enjoy!

Re: Teen Model Railroader Place

Ok, let me give more info on my self.

Hi, my name is Jordan. I have a 4x8 layout (HO scale) I call the Rock Creek Subdivision. I'm modeling Wisconsin Central, in August of 1995. I'm planning on a new layout in another room, It's a small room so I plan on doing a Double decker (Triple if you could stageing). I'm debateing right now what line I should model. The Valley Sub (The line I live on), or my freelaced Rockcreek sub.

Re: Teen Model Railroader Place

Hi, I'm Alex Czajkowski. I am turning 14 August 9th. I will be starting a 4x8 layout based on the Milwaukee Road in the 1970s with some Great Northern thrown in. Do you guys use sound, because I was thinking about purchasing a BlueLine SD40-2?

Good pictures TrainMan
