Howdy folks. I'm here for my boys . . . really . . . that's what I tell my wife! She doesn't seem to believe me though /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/wow.gif
I haven't had trains since I was a kid (well, except the little HO set I run around the Christmas tree). I now have 2 year old twin boys though, and they can't get enough trains. They love every size and shape of trains, so I'm gonna jump in with both feet to keep them happy. I've always liked large scale trains, but never had the place or the budget for them, and this seems like the perfect opportunity to begin. I'm starting out with a small area in the front patio, and we'll see where it goes from there.
I've been prowling this forum for a little while, and it seems like there is some fantastic knowledge, so I'm looking forward to taking advantage of it. I'll be posting a question about my first layout in the general section, so look for it there!
thanks, and I look forward to getting some great information here!

Welcome to MLS Flathead!
Starting out on your patio sounds like a good idea. Should be level and small enough to get you hooked
Oh, and of course it's all for the boys ;-)
Are you going to go with a starter set? Do you have one in mind yet?

I've been trying to figure out how to start, and have a couple threads started in the beginner section. Right now I'm really leaning toward getting two starter sets, then working up from there.

Welcome, Flathead..... It's a good thing to tell your wife that you're doing it for the boys. She really needs to know that this is the best place to learn about trains. Trains lead to much higher technology and wisdom. Like battery power and radio control. Especially for 2 year olds. Ya' just gotta start 'em young...
