About me

Hello to all Fellow Model railroaders. It does not matter who you are, what scale you are into , what era, not even if you are into Proto typical or loosley based off an area or rail Network, I am so happy to have have heard of this app from Lucy @loading gauge. This was a great video on what I think all modelers that share the same iterest to help and incourrage the hobby, so here I am.

So about me a little more.

Growing up i had always been facinated with and a love for trains. My fist train set came to me at the age of 12yrs. It was covered over with bed sheet as it stood on a make-shif table infront of the tree. when revealed, it was a tyco Chatanoo steam loco with working smoke and trailer piggy back flat care and manually operated trailer loader, along with other mixed freight. From there I was hooked for the rest of my life.

So as the years passed by, i began to expand my train set with the help of my dad, more track more sidings and more trains.

As i grew, the train set was sold, now at high school the “train set” name was now to become more serious as i learned the termanoligy “Layout”. this was a big leap, I was now feeling that this was a hobby that had importance.My passion grew into an obsession from there.

In may time to now I have built 4 layouts, eaach time learning something new and experimenting with new technics.

To date

So I have finally settled down to a modular layout that will be eventually become a double deck layout messuring up at 525 X 480. total area. But though the net work of friend in the hobby im hoping to make this layout a reality in it final glorry of completion.

Please feel fee to look at the pics I post on the layout at this point.
