I was at Hobby Lobby with Kelley. She went her way, I went my way. I saw model trains while looking at the cars. That was last week. On Wednesday we went back. This is what I bought.

This is N scale

This is HO scale

These trains are made by Bachmann. I plan to build a table to set these and a couple other trains up. I have two other HO trains. One by Tyco, the other by Lionel. I think this will be another fun hobby!

I am sorry that you are in pain. I have back problems that cause pain all the time. I know what pain is like. I hope you can do the things you need to do. Be careful!

Thank you! I just set my trains up on the floor. After running them for a few days I put them away.

In April I bought another N scale train set!

I added the track from the first N scale set to make a larger track.

Then I bought a couple of switches and some short straight track to make a track that I could run two trains at the same time!

Like I said, Mike, it will be a while. Rather than expand on that on your thread, allow me to direct you to mine on the SP&S boxcar. There I explain more of the backstory of how I found my way back to trains and the reasons it will take so long to get things moving.
