Hey all, it's Mason here alive and well. I was wondering what you kind folks think I should get at my next train show (First Frost Allentown Show) I was thinking about expanding my HO scale things but since I want to complete my O Gauge CNJ Blue Comet set I thought that I'd just stick with O scale and make HO a side project. I moved my O scale trains to my Attic Floor because I could build a bigger layout instead of doing it on small tables. What do you think my min. Curve should be? I was thinking along the lines of O-60 or  O-72. I think that I might stick with fastrack and upgrade to Ross track later. Some of my more recent wish list items that I added to my already mile long wish list are two or three cars, the Atlas O Master Line Troop series car (Troop Sleeper, Troop Kitchen, and the US Army Hospital Car) and the MTH premier line Blue Comet Cylindrical Hopper. (As you can see I love the blue comet) if y'all could tell me what I should get at my next train show please leave a reply.

What space have you identified? The temperature extremes in a non-climate controlled attic can make playing trains not fun.

If that's all that's available, then go for it. Check to determine if there is an outlet for electric. If you have to put an adapter in a light socket or something like that, be sure to ask permission to do that.

I agree with John D. Save and hunt year round for the train items that you want.
