Just getting started

I’ve wondered for awhile why there aren’t more blogs specifically about modeling, or about modeling a specific prototype. So I’m going to try doing so for my own modeling of the Southern Pacific.
     I’m currently almost ready for operating sessions on my layout, partly reconstructed from the one I had years ago in Pittsburgh, PA, and partly with new sections. I plan to post about layout progress and operations.
     I’m also involved in a number of writing and modeling projects, about which more later as they develop. Currently several tank car models are in work, in preparation for my scheduled talk at the Cocoa Beach meeting in January.

  1. Dear Tony, Welcome to the world of Model RR blogs. I've been writing one for awhile that is centered mainly on the Soo Line. Feel free to check it out: https://sites.google.com/site/bobsworkbench/

  2. Thanks for publishing this blog. I stumbled on this as i googled for tips on weathering PFE refers. I look forward to reading your modeling tips and prototype data.
