Hi everyone!
I'm a long time reader first time member. First off I would like to thank everyone for all their post as you all have helped me at one time or another in my various projects. I'm more of a postwar Lionel guy, but I dabble in HO, G, S, and N gauges along with remote control cars, planes and helicopters. Recently I dug out my old HO and have been rebuilding some Chattanooga 2-8-0s along with Athern Hi-F drive locomotives. My 10 yr. old son also has me trying to piece together my old US1 Trucking set. I grateful to have a site such as Tyco Forums to gain information to do all of this and I finally decided maybe I could help someone else in this hobby by posting some of my questions and answers.
Currently I have two O gauge layouts one that's 4 X 8 and one that's 13 X16 , but I've been concentrating on a temporary HO setup on two folding tables. I have a feeling the HO won't be up much longer, but I like to mess with them every once in a while. For Christmas I'll probably have G or S gauge under the tree, so you can see I like to change it up a bit.
I look forward to being a member and hope to get to know you all.

Welcome to the nut house!
And I have found New Jersey to be a treasure trove of train stuff/train shows.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome and all the compliments on my O gauge layout! This weekend I know I'm busy or I would go to the show at St. Joseph's; I guess I'll just have to catch it next time. I also wanted to share this picture of the temporary Ho layout I setup along with the Chattanooga locomotives I've been playing around with.
