Hello all, I'm a new member -- I just discovered the group today. No room/permission for a layout at home (the wife keeps finding reasons that it would be a bad idea) so I've decided to try another

Hello All -- Just wanted to let you know of another list on Yahoo Groups: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/model_railroading_just_for_fun This list is intended for people who are building model railroads

Just found this group a couple days ago, I changed email addresses due to switching internet providers and Yahoo wiped all my groups. Found this one in the desperate search to relocated all the ones I

Hi All, Quoten Jonathan Piasecki <jonp@...>: track these "90- them. Well, there're several options here and the most suitable for H0 scale is: Kibri #4130 Waggon-Drehscheibe,

Hello Reinoud -- Welcome to the list and thanks for introducing yourself. I've just taken a quick look at your website and must say that I'm impressed -- there's a lot of information there! I'm

Hi All, Just today I found this mailing list by accident and signed up immediately. (Well, I'm already member of a lot of other modelrailway related Yahoo groups...) Anyhow, my name is Reinoud

Hello -- I've been told that the link in my first message won't work unless you're subscribed to the Layout Construction list. Sorry about that! Try this:

Hello All -- If you're not subscribed to Layout Construction and are interested in the plywood-vs-lumber debate, there's a thread developing on warped plywood that you might want to check out. The

John: Thanks for responding. I live in South Riverdale, near Pape and Queen East, and am an active member of a club in Scarborough. Rather than meet at George's, I'd be pleased if you'd visit us at

Hello David -- Welcome to the group and thanks for posting. I'm also in the Toronto area (I live in Keswick at the Stephen Leacock Memorial Trailer Park and work in Richmond Hill). Maybe I'll bump

Hi David, This sounds quite a challenging size and shape, but it certainly sounds feasible. From your list of requirements the only thing I'd question would be 89' flats. You layout will have a 90

Y'all, I have just created a file in the group files area containing my layout's track plan and a few photo's I took of it in it's 'unfinished' state. If you'd like to take a look just go to 'files'

Hi y'all, I am a new member to this list - it was recomended to me by a felow member of another model railroad list. Anyway, I currently have a 10'4"x6'4" "shelf" layout depicting the BN/BNSF branches

I'd like to build a small HO shelf-type industrial switching layout. My interest is in UP diesel-era operation, and I would like to be able to operate rolling stock ranging from 40' boxcars to 89'

Jon: I'm not sure if you absolutely HAVE to age paint, but I've gotten some gallons that "aged" in the basement for about a year before I got around to putting it on the walls. I've also had some that

Hello Jerry -- Thanks for the notes. Sadly, yes, the plywood was stored upright, but it was leaning flat against a stable surface. The bow was "outwards" or away from the surface the wood was resting

Jonathan: First, you have to get your priorities in order. Just remember, in the alphabet of life - Play comes before Work. How did you store that plywood? Against a wall? All plywood stored that way
