The Words "Just" and "Only"

Lance Mindheim's Perspective article in the December 2024 issue of Railroad Model Craftsman Magazine is EXACTLY why I created this page. I do have the space to build a medium-sized model railroad, but I don't have the time thanks to work & family. Of course, the real railroad takes A LOT of my time & the rest of the time is devoted to my family, so modeling time is very, very limited. Take a look at this article & see if you might be in the same situation(s).

Boomer Diorama

I want to mention one of the great modelers I follow (& suggest you follow it too) is Boomer Diorama | River Road on YouTube. Here's a link to his work:

Boomer Diorama | River Road

He does some fantastic scratch building. I also fall in line with his thoughts on modeling, in general.

From what I can tell, Boomer is only on YouTube (no other social media - I can't blame him for that).

DuPont Seaford, DE in 1939

I love this shot of the DuPont Company's plant in Seaford, DE on the Cambridge Secondary Track in 1939 - right after they opened shared by the Seaford Delaware, a look back in time page. Take a look at not all of those automobiles, but their makes & models!
