ABUTCHER, baker, candlestick maker. or banker has nothing on you. Your abilities, whatever they are, will definitely aid you as a model railroader.
Why? Because model railroading is one of the most versatile of hobbies. It allows expression of life, action, artistry, and things scientific; and you may either share your model railroad interests with thousands of others, or you may spend quiet evenings at home working on your own railroad.
If you like things electrical, there is no end of fascinating circuits you can develop to help control trains, protect them from accident, and create realistic operating effects. You will find building and coloring scenery will give you the same exciting fascination you get from traveling, for you create an imaginary countryside to follow your own will. If you have a mechanical interest, or are interested in railroad history and romance. model railroading offers you an excellent means of expression. There are some model rail roads that are living cartoons just packed with funny kinds of locomotives and cars, humorous station names. or interesting stories about the originals from which the models were made
Again you will find there are some challenging problems in each phase of model railroading to which you may contribute a new and better solution. All of these interesting things will come to you as you continue your model railroading. On this page are three locomotives built by Mel Thornburgh of Cincinnati. Mel likes old-fashioned locomotives; he likes British track; so on his model railroad you see the two together. The combination is perfectly O.K., because, in model railroading, there are no limits Some fellows build heavy main lines with many tracks and broad sweeping curves; others like crooked branch lines with all the weeds and broken-down stations. Your railroad will be still different. It will be the way you want it to be because you are the boss.
