    Hello TrainBoard

    My name is Tyson I am from Saskatchewan Canada and am into N scale once again. My father had bought me a set in my teens but lost interest due to girls and cars... hehe y'all know the story i am sure.About 8 years ago I started collecting Locomotive and more locomotives till i had more Loco's the rolling stock.. lol. Then My father and I proceeded to build the Atlas layout N-18 i believe, got the track laid and got trains running. I soon found out it wasn't what i wanted so my father added on to the original 4'x6' to a now 6'x'12 so we could run bigger longer trains. Well that didn't work out either it took up my living room, so I took it down , got my living room back could watch TV once again. :tb-biggrin: I got the N scale bug once again and My father and I built a gorgeous Oak show case this past weekend to show off our 70 Locomotives. Gosh that shouldve been made years ago, better late than never :tb-tongue: I now have in the plans a 16'x20' L shaped layout in planning stages. I have been a railroader for the past 11 years Qualified Conductor in summer 1998
    got my Locomotive Engineer Ticket in 2002 from the BLE(Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers)and am currently working for CPRail as a Conductor

    Welcome to TrainBoard!

    It's always fun to follow what other modelers are doing, so when you have those plans ready, please share a drawing.

    Welcome aboard Lil Hogg, our newest Saskatchewanian!

    I'd love to see your layout plans in whatever form they are. Also, you're not alone here as far as railroad employees go, and the rest of us who aren't railroad employees love hearing your stories when you're willing to share them.
