Hello everyone, Just a simple (probably stupid) question here. I bought some buildings at the Dupage Co. Train Show in Chicago and I've run into a stumping point. I bought the ADM Grain Elevator and I can't get the decals to come off the page. Aren't they just like stickers, peel off and stick on? Can someone reply with what I may be doing wrong? Or do I have to glue them on the building? Thanks in advance! Nic
Many thanks to those who replied. I went to the show and I must say I enjoyed the day and got a couple great deals. There's not a ton of HO there, more Lionel. Anyways, thank you for the replies. Also, if you are in Chicago area, I found a hobby shop that blew my mind away, in fact I would say I saw more HO rolling stock and locomotives at this place than the entire Dupage Train Show, and that's a lot! It's called Ed's Hobby Warehouse and it's in Palos Hills, IL. WORTH THE DRIVE
I never really thougth about that - not being able to work on the center. I may make a cutout in the center to stand up in if I have to do that layout or maybe arrange the plywood some other way. Would anyone recommend a "L" shape with the plywood or do it as two seperate layouts that connect somehow? Thanks!
Hello, Has anyone been to the train show at DuPage Co. Fairgrounds in the suburbs of Chicago? Is it worth going to? It seems to be a pretty big show. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. It is about a 100 mile drive for me each way and I am thinking of going to the one in January. Thanks, Nic
Mike, I like the 2nd layout that you posted. Would I just bring this picture to a hobby shop to get the track that I would need or do you have what I would call a track shopping list for it? Thanks Nic
Thank you all for the responses. I am actually looking to do either 2 seperate 4x8 sheets connected with a shelf (not sure if it's the right terminology) or 2 4x8 sheets to create one large 8x8 table. Thank you for the suggestions and I am open to any ideas that I should be thinking about. I am looking to start building within a month. The drywall is getting taped tomorrow in the room! Thanks Nic
Hello Everybody! I hope I do not upset anyone by asking this question. If I do, I am truely sorry! Here goes 1st of all, I am using HO Scale. I do not have any track or anything bought, so any type of track. My workspace needs to be no bigger than two 4x8 sheets of plywood. I am looking for some type of track plan that would help me incorporate an amusement park. I would love to add some of the carnival rides and the roller coaster that are available for HO Scale. I will be using HO Scale and I would
