Re: Model Railroaders Here.......
Cool deal!!!
I am a train nut since I was big enough to breath on my own.
I don't currently have a layout (darn kids wanted bedrooms) but I do have some track nailed to a piece of plywood so I can get em out and run them now and then with my kids.
HO scale for me.

I just bought the Lionel Polar Express this year for running under the christmas tree. My mom still runs my Grandfathers 1920's Lionel around her tree each year. I would like to incorporate a train layout in my basement when I get around to finishing it.

Cynsen, I have to sets of antique Lionell Trains, one from when my dad was a boy of 6 or 7, he is 84 now. The second set is from when my oldest brother was born, he would be 58 now ( he passed away a few years ago) I may want some pointers on setting up a display

HO guy here. I started building a layout in my "man room", but I bought a boat and then I broke the boat, so now I'm just broke. I have done some weathering and took an undecorated Atlas Dash8-40B locomotive, painted it Conrail colors and put Norfolk Southern patches on it. It looks stunning.

Re: Model Railroaders Here.......
very nice Skools.....I like it!! I wish i had room for an outside G scale, but i live in a townhouse so that is out for now.
here are some pics of the Lionel I built this fall.
went with a winter scene this year, turned out pretty good, next year I will try something different.
I love to go out there at night, turn off all the lights, and run it in the dark ;D

Re: Model Railroaders Here.......
Nice setups guys, I wish I had time to put my HO's together,
I just keep collecting them and putting them in storage.
Maybe one day.
Did you guys ever notice, that to get any old trains,
you have to go to the train shows?
Whenever I go to a flea market or antique shop,
there are never any there or they are junk.
My buddy has got it made, his wife is into trains like him,
they even redid their dining room in a train motiff.
He painted the ceiling to look like sky with clouds and then put two tracks about 7 feet up the wall, all the way around. They both love to just watch the trains go, they say it is relaxing.
Next time I go to their house, I'll get some pix.
