Hello, everyone! I have already given a brief description of what this blog is about on the “About” page and now I will explain things a little further. Back in January of 2024, Adriana, Daniel and I took a train ride from Utica, NY up through the Adirondack Mountains. The train ride on the Adirondack Railroad was only 3 hours long and we have taken other train trips in the past, but for some reason this one rekindled a desire that I had to create a model railroad.
When I was a kid I was gifted an H0 scale Santa Fe train set one year, which I later destroyed by taking the cars apart, and when I was in my early 20’s I started buying N scale model train related things but I never got to a point to where I could set anything up.
Now that I’m older and actually have a dedicated place to set up a model railroad, I figured it would be a good idea to have a place to document the construction of my model railroad. Adriana and I are currently renovating our 185 year-old house and it consumes most of our free time. Once the renovation is complete, I will be able to start working on my “man cave” in a portion of our basement.
Now I’m off to work on house.
