| Where
it all Started
I found in the attic of an old house I was renovating a Model
Railroad Switch that had been left behind by the previous owner.
At that time I knew zero about what I then called toy trains but
I took the switch home anyway. While watching TV that night I fiddled
with the switch and it facinated me ( I know, I need to get a life)
enough that I decided to investigate Model Railroading
So I started searching the internet for Tips, Tricks and Model
Railroad
Secrets. After many hours of browsing the net and a sore neck
to boot I
came to the conclusion that there was so much information out
there for experienced Model Railroaders, but where does
the Railroad Newbie start?
The
Process
I was sceptical about buying an ebook over the internet. As a
complete
beginner with limited funds I was wary about parting with hard
earned cash to someone I didn't know. So I went to the local Model
Railway store and started asking questions. After an
hour with him I was no better off. It suddenly hit me, If I was
a little more in the know then I could go to the shop and tell
him what I needed. After all, the guy at the store just wants
to make a sale, right? Nothing wrong with that mindyou!
Now I wouldn't build a house without a plan so why should A
Model Railroad be any different. With that in mind I want
to have a plan before I lay the first track. All I've done so
far is to make the decision that due to space for the layout or
rather lack of it, I'll build my railway in N guage,
In fact my children gave to me for Christmas a Locomotive,
A Bachmann Rock Island GP18, I'm stoked. So now I have to build
a Model Railroad and I'm currently putting plans down on paper.
I also thorouhly read the authoritative.......
