I am Alan from UK. Current project is a small n scale layout (3'5" x 3'5") which I am building with my kids. This is my first model railroad venture since I was a kid and my first foray into n scale.
Welcome to TrainBoard! Glad to read that your children are also involved! This can be a great family activity.
They are 10 and 8. They are really excited as the track wiring is completed, so they can actually play rather than just me telling them how cool it will be when it is finished. My youngest has already asked if it can be his when finished.
Hi, welcome to the Train Board, glad to have you on board. We'd be happy to share more of your and your kids efforts, also photos.
Welcome aboard, Alan. It sounds like you have a great start with the kids involved. I'll bet they will surprise you with some of their questions and suggestions.
Alan, what might be fun is for your kids to ask and post questions on the Train Board, then look for and read the answers. Great way to really involve them in our (your) Forum..
Hello Alan, welcome aboard! As you can see we share the same name, and I am also a Brit, but currently living in Slovenia. Hope you and your kids have fun with the layout. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
