It Begins...
I have recently been bitten by the bug to setup an N scale model railroad. It is probably because my brother and I grew up with a very nice layout when we were younger. It was something we shared with our father and what little I recall, it was fun!
My children are just getting to the age where they would be interested in helping my wife and I build this and probably enjoy running the trains along the way.
So I dug out all of my brother and my trains, scrounged up some 4x8 plywood and will commence building this thing. The bench work is mostly done, but I am having some table warble issues. So I may have to solve that if it affects things very much.
I have decided to stick to DC and not jump into DCC at this time. So I ordered a new MRC Tech 4 model 200 to start out with. I am planning on a dual track layout, so hopefully this will be enough power.
Next up. Planning the perfect route, cork roadbed and locomotive TLC (they have been sitting for the better part of 30 years!)
