After 10 years of collecting trains, buildings and scenery items, I just started on my layout today! After 7 months being in our new home , the birth of our 2nd child, and getting a ton done on my honey-due list; I was able to get some time to myself to start my layout. I only was able to paint the walls behind it today, but it is a start. I hope to get some rail-racks up on the walls to display some of my post war and childhood trains soon and get some good lighting installed later this week. I already have a good start on the benchwork with a nice 9x5 table my grandfather built me as a child, but I will be expanding it to a nice 6x13.5 with a 3x6 leg on the one end. I will be posting photos of my progress.
