Hey guys, I just got signed up here and wanted to say hi! I have been involved in MRR'ing for about 25 years now (since I was 6 when dad set up a layout for christmas), but I took a break for a few years. I had quite the collection way back and most of it was my own fictional railroad that I dreamed up and I had alot of custo painted and super detailed cars n loco's, but then sold it all to a collector when I lost interest. Here I am again, having gotten back into it about 5 years ago and I now have room for more then the 4x8 I had before. I am working on completing a 12x33 now and am basing it from 1995 to 2002 to keep things modern, but not brand new, and this is another fictional railroad, based really loosely on CP details. I am calling it the Southern Prarie Railroad, but am thinking of changing it to Western Plains Railroad. My loco fleet so far consists of about 8 athearn BB SD40-2's, 5 spectrum 8-40 CW's, a couple GP 40's, a couple GP 38's, and a GP 60M and 2 GP 60B's. My main consist of rolling stock is intermodal (lots of 3&5 unit well cars) and a couple dozen auto racks, grain cars and a few box cars and others... Looking forward to sharing and gaining ideas with everybody, Chris
