    New member here.

    Some call me...Tim...

    I have collected various scales over the years from N, HO, to O Scale.

    Decided to get back into the hobby again so I am starting over in N Scale.

    Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone.

    Thanks :)

    Thanks guys, getting used to micro-trains couplers for the first time. I am amazed at how much has improved in 16+ years.

    Glad to hear you are in central Illinois. If you are near Normal please put Trains in the Heartland on your calendar, April 8-9. It will be at Heartland Community College. If interested, there are N scale clubs in Bloomington-Normal and Champaign-Urbana.

    don't figure i'll be up that way, there is a train show n swap meet up in Hoopeston IL the 18'th and 19'th. Not a big show, but the prices are reasonable most the time. then stop by Jocko's for pizza in Danville on the way home [my favorite pizza].
