Hello, newbie in the house!

Classic Toy Trains Forum

Hello to you all,

I’m new to this forum but not new to O gauge. I have an 18 x 8 3R layout in my basement. I’ve been in to trains since 1955 and O gauge since 1987.

You guys and gals seem to cover a lot of ground in this forum and I’m always willing to learn new things.

I worked for 5 years in a Lionel repair shop on Long Island, so maybe I can share some things too.

I’ll post some pics of my layout when I figure out the nuts and bolts of this site and when (or if) I get accepted by the moderator.

Welcome to the forum et.al. Aside from being kinda quiet this a pretty good forum. Bob Nelson alone is worth his weight in electrons.

[#welcome] Aboard.

Lots of guys and gals here from all over with different backgrounds but all sharing their ‘luv’ for the hobby.

I’m in Orlando, a now permanent “snowbird” from the Bronx. Spent around 50 years in “HO” and into “O” seriously for a few years. They are always here to help and I have learned so much.

Looking foward to your posts and, again, welcome aboard.
