Weekly Photo Fun February 26 to March 3, 2016
Great work everyone last week! Time to start of this week's photo thread!
As always, we get as much out of your in-process photos as we do the highly polished "all done" shots!
Greetings from Bulgaria
Hi there,
I wanted to say hello and introduce myself as I plan to become active on these pages as I go through my adventure, and share it with you guys. I've been a lurker for a little while, having just finished reading every back issue of MRH (largely while I should have been working! for shame!) and also become active searching the forum for answers to questions I have.
What makes a good model railroad hobbyist?
Recently Joe Atkinson asked what post seem to get the most attention (reads/comments). It got me to thinking about those on this forum who seem to be respected for the types of posts that attract attention, whether by design or innovation, and those who seem to be prolific model builders.
IAIS's West End - What types of posts do people read most?
I've been an MRH Forum member for almost 7 years now, but didn't start a blog here until about 3-1/2 years ago. I do a lot of analytics and number-crunching at work and find that sort of thing interesting, so every year or so, I think it's fun to go through my blog summary "Reads" count at http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/blog/joe-atkinson just to see what subjects might have caught people's attention the most relative to one another.
HELP NEEDED - Is there anyone on the forum located in FRANCE?
I'm looking to make a purchase from Amazon in France, but the vendor will not ship to Canada.
Is there anyone on the forum in France that could help me out?
If you can help, please email me at billy@pdc.ca

Anyone in South Bend, IN area interested in forming round robin group?
Dying to get out of the armchair and find others who need mutual help and inspiration in getting their model railroads built.
Looking for Model Railroaders in New York City
Hi! I am a reporter at Columbia Journalism School, and I am making a short documentary on model railroaders. I would like to connect with hobbyists in New York City to learn about their stories and the stories of their trains. Thank you very much!

Lighted Magnifier in your pocket
Use your phone, smart phone or tablet to take pictures on you layout? You don't need to snap the picture just use the the highly magnified screen to check details, track alignment, etc. If you have an assisted light app turn it on first and it's like watching a wide screen TV. Think of the possibilities.
