Hi I was recently looking to get back into the socials of model railroading and couldn't find a forum I really liked. The Gauge was the first forum I joined years ago and felt this was the perfect place to get back in touch. I was away for most of the summer due to life getting in the way and it is high time I put my foot down and settle somewhere.
I hope to share some of my builds and get feedback on a charity project I am plannin. Hope y'all are doing well...

Everywhere else seamed so, well, unlike here. So thanks Jeff.
Maybe this will get me going on the Z scale stuff soon

I modeled Z Scale at one time. I had to give it up because of eyesight and poor availability. It's so much easier to find things now than it was in the 80's.

This is one I built into a module in the summer. Hopefully that will fit in the first load.

Wow - great building work! I love the super-detailing and weathered look.

NO WAY that is Z scale! No way!
And if it is, it is purely fantastic!
