Here's my pictures from the 2008 Doubleheaders tour in SW Ontario. Didn't see as many layouts as other years because I had 2 of my kids with me, and needed to visit the toilets at every place because my 2 year old was in her first week of being fully potty trained. :) So I visited several that I...

For those of us in SW Ontario, or even beyond. dhdev1.htm I'm planning on going again this year. :)

Picked up this used house at a model train show Sunday, along with a bunch of other awesome deals. Does anyone know who its made by and how old it is? I've never seen one like it before. With a bit of paint and TLC I think it will look quite nice!

I am planning to build an HO scale model of my house to place on my (still in the planning stages) layout. I am planning to build the house using wood board & batten siding. If I take a Pikestuff window from one of their kits and turn it sideways, than the height is right, but the window would...
