Hi, My problem is that we live in a very wooded area and the place that i plan to build the railroad has too many trees and I am afraid that the trees will make the railroad look unrealistic. what should I do? Posts: 27 | From: Lewisburg, PA, US | Registered: Dec 2003

Given the number of beginner type posts you've started, it appears you need to do some READING. There tons of books & magazines avalaible, either at hobby shops or libraries. Also there are any number of R web sites the deal w/ your questions. Maybe you could even visit a MR club in your area. Posts: 249 | From: Downey CA USA | Registered: Jul 2000

I do get Model Railroader magazine from my library exept that the scales are to small and it doesn't do me any good. I am to inthusiastic about model railroading (if there is such a thing) and my mom says: "this is a very expencive hobby tuud" and my other problem is that i can't find a loco. in O scale or O gauge track.

Hi, Depending on the type of railroad you wish to build will reflect the tree size and the number needed to be realistic. As I model the logging side in 0n30, my trees are over 2feet tall and there are 100's of them. Heres a photo to show you what I mean. Cheers Shamus

Shamus, I swear you have to be the Allen McClelland of logging layouts. Every one of the pictures you have shared with us have been phenominal. Keep up the good work.

Shamus, I clicked the little racoon to see more of your great layout and it didn't work. Is that something you can fix or ..?
