Hello!

While I like Pokemon, I also like something else that more older members (and basicly everyone) may like too, and that is railway modelling! I thought that I would do this topic to see how it goes.

What railway modelling related thing are you currently doing at the moment? I am ballasting, but I'm going to start making roads using the Woodland Sceincs ReadyGrass Road Kit very soon!

I don't, but always wanted to. :) It always seemed like a fun hobby. We had an antique set when I was a kid that got stuck around the Christmas tree, but I am not sure where it ended up going. If I ever had a kid, I would use that as an excuse to get involved.

Cool! Yep, it is, and its very time consuming too.

@Laz I played Rollercoaster Tycoon (I think that thats the name of it) before, and that was fun!
