Wow, what fun.

I am a noobie to Standard Gauge, long time O gauger. This summer I attended the TCA Convention in Pittsburgh, I saw the huge SGMA layout, and was blown away, so turned on that after the convention I thought about the layout and those trains daily for a month, then I decided I wanted to get involved, and bought the Blue Comet set, and joined SGMA.

I am fortunate to be a member of the National Capital Trackers. We are an O gauge club, we do 25 shows a year, but at a few shows we add a Standard Gauge layout, as some of the members are interested.

This weekend the Trackers had a show with O and Standard Gauge, I brought the Blue Comet and it was a great first outing. I do have to get used to coupling those latch couplers, I had a few break-aways.

 

 

wish I would have known  your were on my tuff in Pittsburgh we could have bent some track,that was my Milwaukee road standard set running on the sgma layout,,i was in heaven,but beware this could happen to you !!! IMGP1216IMGP1554IMGP0640
