Back again geeze Hello all, Well it seems as if I am back yet again, after two moves selling one home, leasing another and finally buying our present little 1939 Farm house I am back to start building my layout one more time. The new layout will be located in a 11x20 building that was once...

Lets see my last posting I think was way back in Nov/Dec of 07, my wife had some health problems, and I had to sell of all my Locos to help make ends meet, then in March we sold our home and now have a new place (leasing a farm) and so now I will rebuild again. TN

For one who is "they" and two, what are you talking about in detail, please. TN

Well after selling my home, and now settled in our new place, it is time for me to make a return. The Tennessee and Western is no more I had to rip it all up, but I did save enough to make a new start at the new home. I have less room but at least this one will be inside (not in the garden...

Hello all, Well due to personal reasons and things beyond my control I must regretfully announce that the Tennesse and Western will be shut down and all items sold off. I wanted to let everyone who has helped me on this project that I deeply appreciate all your help and your support. I...

Steel Mills are very cool, if we buy this new home in March (with LARGE garage or basement) I plan on installing one on the Tennessee & Western. Cant wait to see some pics.

Thanks, I should have new pics up tonight woohoo!!!!!

Layout is looking GOOD, cant wait to see the harbor area.

John sorry for the delay in replying just been busy, thanks for the compliments. Well here are some pictures of the work I got accomplished today. Let me know what you think. Just a General view, got a bunch accomplished but still a lot of ground work to do. Just a shot of a...

Thanks again, I wish I could have posted a clearer picture of it up so it that it was not so fuzzy when you blow it up. Basically the elevations go from 48 inches to 54 inches, the yard plan may change just a little due to the fact I am still laying it (this weekend hopefully) I have been...

Madhatter, sorry I have been sick with a bug this past weekend and didnt get to draw you up a track plan but I will this week. On the Mallet it is a 1980's model that was like New, I bought it off of a lady who inherited her uncles train stuff. Nkp147, thanks for the warning, although I am...

Thanks NKP174, we will be using DCC, I just bought my MRC Prodigy Squared last week. Yeah I have tried to get all of my children someway involved in the building of it and so far each one has pitched in somewhere along the way. Yep a J-1 would be nice to add to the roster. So far we have...

Thnak You everyone for the replys, when we move in the spring/summer of 08 I know I would like to add the Narrow gauge as part of the Tennessee & Western HO I already have. Thanks again for the info.

Woohoo..I got the PA squared, should be in by next weekend.....gives me time to do more wiring, and panting and stuff.

ahhhh see thats what I wondered and could not find the answer on Google, so HOn30 is the same as N scale. So do manufactures produce HOn3 track or do you have to hand lay it? The reason I am asking is we will be buying a new home next year(lots more MRR room!!) and I would like to mix my HO...
