Hello from the Northeast U.S.!

[Arlo's Trains]

Hi there!

I'm 17, I've been avidly into Large Scale for 7 years now and Lionel 3 rail semi-scale trains before that although I do still dabble in O scale(Mainly freelanced Electric Traction and Stuff Based on JK Rowlings Harry potter series) I mostly only do things that run on the 45mm gauge these days, I'm a avid fan and modeller of the Colorado 3', Cog railways, Welsh Narrow Gauge and some certain trains that possibly have faces created by one Reverend W. Awdry.

Been poking around this forum and others for years and thought it was about time I actually interacted with one haha

I've included photos of some of my finished and wip projects below as an example of my work (sorry about the lower image quality, they wouldn't upload at the full size)

Vermont. Lovely state. We used to go down there quite a lot in the far-off days when we travelled for fun.

Speak for yourself

 

[Greg Elmassian]

cornucopia would be a better word, unless your drug problem is that pervasive...

Welcome Arlo. Humour? It's the only sense I've got

Arlo, did you know the largest public train show is in January at the BIG E in Springfield. MA. 4 buildings of trains and at least 2 g scale layouts running, plus vendors with largescale trains. Charles Ro is there as is Jamies Collectables.
