My Newest Acquisition…

Dad surprised me with this last night.  He got one of the girls at the pharmacy to order it for me. It is going to take some assembly, but it will be a fun rainy night project.   I can always use more trains and the Proto 2000 line is noted for extremely smooth running locomotives.  Now, I just have to install a Digital Command Control decoder.

That's a nice looking train. What scale are your trains?

Happyone,

HO. I've always loved HO since I was a kid. N is just too small for detail.

My husband does HO scale too. N is small and Z is way too small. I'm so glad he is has started another layout. I really miss his old one. I'm going to be updating his progress on my blog!

Hey, I know you like trains, hop on over to my blog and you'll see a couple of nice pics that my husband took while train watching this weekend.

My son was a model train buff from the time he was a very little boy, working on his layouts kept him out of trouble and also helped him find his career as an engineer for BNSF railroad. He still loves to play trains, both big and small.
