"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.

Post your non-O scale stuff here!

Cesar:

It is good to see you posting again.  Your new Marlin layout seems to be coming along nicely.  Have you given up on O  completely or do you now have two layouts?

Really miss your open houses after York from years ago!

Happy railroading,

Don

Hi Don, thank you for comments. I miss all the nice folks who I was able to share my 0 gauge layout with. I still dabble with 0 gauge from time to time. Nice to see you my friend!

I have a fair stockpile of Marklin HO myself and sure hope to make use of at least some of it (I have a nice collection of Kof locomotives; my favorites). I have a small Marklin dealer display layout from FAO Schwarz that needs some cleaning-up and minor repairs, but the main thing is that I would like to replace all the M track used on that layout. The existing track is not in the greatest shape, and I have found it pretty hard to clean while still keeping it in place. Looking for a source for the needed track sections.

Hey Allan, are you looking to replace sections of M Track? I have a bunch I can donate to you.

Very nice Cesar - This is the first I've seen of your layout. Dind't realize that you have gone to HO!  Thank you again for opening your beautiful former 3 rail layout - was able to visit some years ago and took a lot of photos! I've since acquired a lot of 3 rail Atlas track in hopes of rebuilding but don't have room right now. I also have quite a bit of HO equipment in case I go in that direction as well.

My Dad was a travel agent and used to travel considerably. He brought some early Marklin home back in the 1960's I think it was and I still have a few items he had.

Keep up the great work - you are one of the better layout builders here sir!  :-)



Same house?
