It is because of this project that I am now getting interested again in hobby trains. HO and N scales, but mostly N. I'm now buying the box cars, collecting the engines, and researching layouts and buildings and generally dreaming of one day doing my own (I dunno what the train hobbiest terminology is) my own landscape. But now I am very interested in finding a Flying Scotsman and other European style trains in N, or British N scale.

I've been looking into magazines. Lots of new things since the last time I was involved with model trains. So I'm curious.. who else here has a model train hobby?

Bryster, I hope you finish this project soon.. I would like to get my hands on this train.
