Just answered my own question by noticing your drywall layout base thread a few minutes ago.

I dont shot pistols or climb around caves, as to school, I fished that when Nixon was around but I do have a couple of toy trains, how about you?
Sadly I have no trains yet.
But........ I am currently building my first layout. It will be a small N gauge built on a one metre by 1.6 metre piece of plywood. It will have a double oval with three sidings.
I still have much to decide, but with the great scope of knowledge that the people here have, I know that I will be OK. I am leaning to a southwest scene as I lived in Arizona for 4 years, but I have a great love of the BC railway as I lived their for a very long time.
But right now it is one foot in front of the other.

And there you have it!!:thumb: :thumb:
I've read that we're going back to it, although in a new service pistol!
Grotto, sounds like a plan! Are you considering steam or diesel or both?
And what time period? I personally go for the steamers but don't think I'm
in the majority. Best of luck with your layout!:thumb:

Track 'n' Ammo
Come to think of it, Trains and Ammo, Where does a 40cal Berretta Cougar fit into the scheme of things? I don't have a gun fetish, just ammo and clips. Is that a bad thing? Once i figger out how to fire with both hands accurately, I'll get anudder gun, prolly anudder 40 cal. , i wouldnt want to upset the balance. Damn that Lara Croft is Good !!!sign1
Ammo?
Hmm not sure but there have been a few places I was glad to have the pistol with me railfanning, between dogs and some spots Ive been to in Newark, Jersy City And BAyonne NJ as well as in Memphis, Nashville and Atalanta. They always seem to put the mains and yard aproaches in the roughest areas.

You got to have an engine and a few cars to test the track as you lay it.
I suggest one gondola to hold brads and a $15 dock side switcher and a bobber caboose to pull those. Those cars will later fit in to any layout.
Think C&O or a logging theme.

Thanks for the words.
I am going for both by using that late 50's era that so many railfans seem to be stuck in. I can see why so many love it as it is a very versatile era where steamers and diesels were still in use.
I still can make up my mind where as I have lived in many places such as Arizona, Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario. One day down the road I have a very definite plan to do the border crossing at Niagra Falls Ontario + NF NY. That will be an awesome project using both American and Canadian flags.
