Training

November looks like it has been a train month, I went to Tucson with John Thaxton, to the model train show. I purchased 3 N scale train cars. John found a box of N scale track and switches, that he bought for very cheap. He also bought an engine and several train cars.

Just some of the various trains to see.
We also visited the Model train layouts in Scottsdale McCormick Railroad Park. The park has changed a lot since I was there 15 years ago or so. The model layout is really neat. and still under construction.

Lots of fun to see the trains, now just have to figure out what to move to where, and get mine out of storage.

It's always fun to look at tiny stuff! I used to love the little Christmas village around Grandpa Gillespie's tree! Also when we had the train table in the familyroom... although we got in trouble if we touched it:0
