Well, I am back....

Gary, How cool is this. I hope you realize that you are making a lot of people here very envious.
What a wonderful way to be able to kick start your hobby, with every mans' dream of a dedicated train room..nay house.
I look forward to be able to follow you in the times ahead as you rebuild your empire.

As I mentioned, the 2 car garage is still used for cars... and it was impossible to keep the bugs out. Spiders and dirt dobbers for the most part. After all the benchwork was complete with track and ballast finished, it dawned on me that the scenery would be a spider haven and I would have serious issues with keeping things clean. So, the layout was put on hold.

I had been thinking of a dedicated train room ever since. Finally I pulled the trigger. I'm glad to be part of The Gauge and that I am able to share.
