Lol trains.

Hi,

First off, my intention is to build a lay out.

The caveat is I will only work and blog about it when I've been drinking..

Don't like it? Close the tab/your browser or just deal with it.

Reasoning: I've seen enough pop culture crap where people are drunk and doing things (Drunk History, My Drunk Kitchen, etc) so let's bring pop culture to model railroading.

This is the intended track plan in N scale:



I possess most of the required track to start doing this. The only things I needed to order are the wyes and crosses.

I'm still undecided on industries or era to model at this point. I do own a small collection of modern diesels (MP15DC,GPs) and intermodal freight cars. I'm also still not sure if I want to be full DCC or not. It's a pretty small lay out so I'm not sure I really need DCC. Perhaps just a good analog throttle controller will suffice. The turn outs will definitely be remote, by the way.

Next time I start drinking, I'll work on laying the track.
