Hi Bill (CN Fan)
Welcome, you'll be learning lots from this forum so I suggest getting started through the threads. :mrgreen:
I, too, lack space (still staying with my parents) and I'm busy building a HO Portable Layout. Mainly for shunting (switching), it will be 4m x 0,40m and based on the railways here in South Africa.
I'll be posting some pics soon in my blog, so take a look there if you get the chance, maybe you can get some ideas or even improve what I'm doing and we (The Gauge) will be able to help you accomplish something, even if it's a N/Z scale coffee table layout.

William,
Welcome...! You'll find there is a lot of Canadian content - Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto, as well an occasional "left-coaster" and one or two from the Maritimes.
I may be local, but I am stumped too - CRHA? Canadian Railway Historical Association perhaps?

Hi Bill. I know a Bill in Kingston, but I don't think he's into trains.
I think we have a few members out by Coburg, but I don't remember any in Kingston.
(Andrew, you're right about CRHA. The Toronto branch used to sponsor the spring railway show in Toronto, but that's fallen away.)

Welcome from another Canadian. I am not too close to you, but what is a few hundred miles by train anyway?
Welcome!!! I am a CN fan too. The old layout I had was all CN. Moved and had to take it up. Now doing NS and CN. Got lots of custom CN rolling stock and engines. Hand painted and decaled. All in O gauge.
Welcome! I'm another Canadian member & CN fan, based in Toronto. Yes, I'm sure you'll learn a lot from this forum. Cheers, Rob
Welcome, Bill! I'm sure we'll be in touch, on various threads, at some point. I model 1950s era CN in HO and am often seeking info or asking questions. (I also model 1950s/60s British trains as well.) I'm based in East York in Toronto. Take care, Rob
Uh ya there are some of us that live between Ontario and Albertasign1

Where abouts on the pacific coast? I used to live in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Mission, travelled up the Fraser Canyon every day from abbotsford to cache creek (Savona) as a swamper in a big rig. Really miss all the railfanning I did out there.
