Hello fellow N-scalers,

I would like to reach out to N-scalers in the greater NY metropolitan area. NY City, Westchester and Long Island to see if there is interest in forming a modular group using either the N-Trak or Free-Mo N standards. Please suggest the best method for contacting you.

Here is another new technology taking the art scene by storm.  Now to just figure out a use for it in model railroading.  See what you think.  

There are a lot of videos about this on YouTube.  It is currently available at Michael's stores.

I am often asked by family and friends, “What are you working on?” Explaining the joy and intricacies of model railroading and my personal interest in animation sometimes does not quite capture everything I would like to convey. But I happened to come upon a far more effective means of accomplishing this in short order, by building small “MicroScenes” which I use as gifts to introduce people to my work and the model railroading hobby. I cannot begin to tell you the impact this has had! It is simply overwhelming. Read on.

To All: A point of View--Model railroading and rail fanning is not a plug and play hobby, it is a challenging hobby, not for the lazy person. It is the road less traveled, it is expensive, time consuming, requires multiple skills and is not for everyone. We search it out. If we did not get a blank stare when we tell others we like trains and are model railroaders, I suspect we would take up a hobby that most others do not have. What is your opinion? Yours, Elvin Howland/E. St. Louis Rail Group Layout
