I'm waiting for some stuff to come in the mail as of now.
List of what I'm waiting on:
1 Proto 2000 GP30 (I got for 45 bucks off of Epay)
2 Proto 2000 SD45s (Birthday present from pops, mom got me clothes [guess who is the favorite parent?])
3 Atlas/Kato Alco C425s (I got for 10 bucks each, just needs detail and DCC)

Not bad at all!

Wants: 1. high-quality, sound equipped, SD40-2s, C636s, C30-7s, and F-units in BN. As for ones that don't cost an arm and a leg, that's out of the question....
2. An end to the limited-production and other crap that makes models harder to get and more expensive.
Here's all the parts...so far...I need a ton more...

Oh well. It was worth a shot, it reminded me how much I hate trackplanning!
Just a really random thought. when do you suppose we'll have to pack up and move on to "part 2" ?
Anywho, Just was wondering, what have you guys done recently?

Jordan, how on earth did you delete Skype? You deleted it while you were logged in, because you're still online!
Anyhew, I got your trackplan, my version. No colour, but I think it's possible, and its to scale. You might just need to move some track, so you can reconfigure the interchange, because now it looks messed up, and too short...
And it looks like an antique, because I darkened it...
lol, anyways, get Skype fixed, or at least explain what on earth you did Penn Central!

Good Job Sherlock... You're acting like Penn Central...

Maybe I could encorperate that S-Curve in my layout
A WC FP45 came out!!! But that's not what I wanted! I wanted a WC F45, and an ATSF FP45 in the superfleet scheme!
Humm, Ozark, you give me ideas.

Actually, its none of the above. I find that if you can devote a focused time on working on your layout, with say, a specific project, you will find you will get it done, with patience, even if you don't have much time, or money. I can't afford much in the way of trains, so I have to content myself with cheaper items, and make do with them. with enough work, they can be made pretty good. Mainly, you get what you put into it, like many other things.
here's some links to give you some ideas:

Hope this helps.
OK, Jordan, I have your plan, I'm just trying to remember my Photobucket password....
WCFan:
Here's three plans I came up with. they are a little rough and not the most acurate, but I hope this helps!
Jordan! Your track plan is coming along!
Well, sorta...

Nope, HO. N scale is pretty cool, if I could I'd switch, but I have too much invested in HO, plus, I have more skillz in HO...
