Conundrum

Conundrum

I'm at a crossroads, currently. 

I've been promoted at the railroad, so now my limited time for modeling has been reduced, a second time, & now there's even less time to devote to my hobby (that's what happens when you're a professional railroad folks - 40 years this year now).

I have to do some soul-searching to see what I want to do with the Cambridge Secondary Track. I might now NOT have the time to model it, but then again, I might.

I guess the next few months will help me determine exactly what I'm going to do next.

As you always see, stay tuned!

Dave Frary Carrabasset and Dead River Model Railroad

I forgot to mention one of my influences in model railroading: Dave Frary's Carrabasset & Dead River model railroad. Growing up in the 1970s, you couldn't read either Model Railroader magazine or Railroad Model Craftsman Magazine without seeing Dave's Maine 2-footer (HOn3 using N scale track).

Happy Veterans Day 2023

Thank you, Veterans! My Dad served in the Army in the 1950s & my Father-in-Law served in the Marines in the 1960s.
