Pere Marquette, Flint, Michigan

iis612, check the links in my signature, they show my layout's history/progress. Unfortunately, the layout is built on a couple 4x8 sheets of plywood with foam on top, not very portable. I have all the wires underneath attached throughout the trackplan, and those are all intertwined with each other, going through holes drilled in the support beams, etc. We really don't have any room for the layout here. We are looking to buy a townhouse in Winfield this year. Part of a first time homebuyers program, a little bigger than the townhouse we're renting now, and the mortgage stands to be roughly half our rent. Our problem is money, and we're not sure about our credit now...because of money and falling behind on stuff. Hopefully we can move in there, and maybe I can talk the wife into having our sons (4yr old and one due in June) share a room, and we can use the 3rd bedroom for the computers, trains, toys, whatever.

I think it would be really cool to meet up, if anything for a cup of coffee. Especially in downtown Wheaton, with a very active mainline running right across the street from the Starbucks there
