Newbie, spending kids college fund

Thanks you all for the welcome!
P Paul M I am Dwain, nice meeting you!
I rather call it a shop, if I was to start calling it a hanger, I might get different ideas. The wife would really like that!

Oh dear, not just a spelling mistake but a forewarning of danger! A 'hangar' is where aeroplanes get parked, given the size of your 'shop' this is feasible. Now the bad news, a 'hanger' is what women hang their clothes on, and given the size of your 'shop' your better half might just take you up on that, especially as there is probably room for the matching shoes and handbags too, so beware! It seems she has already sized up the possibilities

Ha, good catch! Luckily the misses is not that into clothes and accessories. However she did "make " me convert the back corner into a flat!

You can run 1/24 slot cars with LGB rolling stock which is more in line with that size.

Thanks for the suggestion. I already have a bunch of tracks and cars so will stick with the 1:32 scale. My focus for now will be on the G scale.

I decided to display the pieces I have, to hopefully motivate me to get stuff done

That looks highly risky, if the door bangs, the little train I'd likely to come down!

Nah, the building is very stable and the door would have to be ripped off in a tornado for the train to come down. If that happens, I will have bigger issues to worry about!

Well then, get some track, lay it down then start using your train. Most of the members here will tell you that the rest, as they say, is history
