Hello everyone my name is Thomas. I live in the beautiful city of Mission Viejo in South Orange County, California. I have a large assortment of N, HO, and even a little bit of G scale locomotives and rolling stock. I recently purchased an end scale streetcar, and I am hoping to build a small layout based around Los Angeles of the late 1940s. I hope to learn a few things while I’m here and to make some new friends.
Welcome to TrainBoard! I recall passing Mission Viejo on the freeway a number of years ago. On the way to San Juan Cap I think. New streetcar. Old Los Angeles. Cool combo.
Welcome. Since you are in Socal may I suggest you get in with this group for good info on model railroad events. https://groups.io/g/ModelRailroadsofSoCalif You could also look it up on Facebook if prefered. I think it's Bob that digs for info and organizes tours.
Welcome Thomas! I was stationed in San Diego for almost 5yrs and have been up and down your stretch of highway many, many times (and a few on the Coaster, as well lol) Much knowledge to be shared from folks here, your project sounds really cool.
