I live in parker Colorado. I am in high school, and play hockey. I model the Southern railway. No specific time period yet. My layout size is 18" by 42". I'm planning a larger layout to go in the basement.

I work in downtown New York in financial services and live in the suburbs (I get to take a train to work everday). I was into HO as a kid but was out of the hobby for 10+ years while living in a series of dorm rooms and apartments. Got back in about 18 months ago when I finally got a house and had the room to build a layout. Did my first one a little too quickly and so went back, did lots of research, and started over with the goal of doing it right the second time.

I notced how the Coffee House has gotten such great resposes, so i thought we should have a place o find out a little about where we are all from and what we do, what we model, why, and all that fun stuff. Just have fun and see how things go. Well I am in the USAF, stationed in Alaska. Ive been a railroad enthusiast for many years, since i was a kid. And now im just beginning an N scale layout. more to come with the progress. How about you guys?
