Some Great News (for me and maybe you too)

If you read the title you may realize not everyone will enjoyed y this but I am one great step,closer in model railroading. I emailed three major manufacturers on the subject of product review samples. I have so far heard back from BLI anf Atlas asking for more information. So hopefully in the near future I will be posting product reviews for those interested. The best part of all of this though is one: I can share some information on products and tWo: FREE STUFF

The arrow indicates the sound port opening.

Cheers!

I'm Back

Well today I got the splint off from my second carpal tunnel surgery. I had my right hand done in September and was no sooner healed from that then they called me for my left hand. It is such a treat to be able to type again, not to mention to be able to work on a model. I've been quiet but lurking and reading, looking forward to being more of a participant again.
