After many, many years of wishing and thinking and, yes, procrastinating, I’ve finally gotten started on a model railroad. Power (in the form of an HO scale CF7 diesel locomotive) has been ordered, and I’m developing the final track plan. Sometime in the next few days I’ll be getting some lumber to begin construction.
The right of way that I’ve managed to procure is rather small; just 6 1/2 feet long by 2 1/2 feet wide. But it’s a start. Someday we’ll move into a larger house, with more room for hobbies. In the meantime, it’ll sure be nice to be able to run a train without having to go all the way down to the club in Carson City.
