Just wanted to reintroduce myself

jd-trainjd-trainOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

Good afternoon everyone. I just wanted to reintroduce myself to the group.  I first joined the forum in 2006, but have been pretty dormant once we sold our previous home of 25 years (n 2019) and I had to tear down my crappy basement layout.  I been through a lot of different modeling phases throughout the years starting with postwar, then moving to newer traditional semi-scale, then finally to scale.  I love scale trains, but for several reasons, am not going to give up my monster lobster couplers!  I figure that if I can overlook the 3rd rail, I can (and have) learned to overlook clunky couplers.  I do have a digital subscription and am looking forward to interacting with y'all once again.  Jim

Thank you Gentlemen.

Alas, there will not be a new permanent layout.  I sold off all my Ross/Gargraves track and turnouts when I tore down my old layout.  Have made the switch over to Lionel Fastback with O84 curves.  When I feel like running the trains, I'll lay some track on the floor of our large upstairs game room for a week or two at a time.  Otherwise, I have my trains in 2 large glass doored storage cabinets and can look at them whenever I want. Bonus, of the cabinets is that the trains don't get dusty.
