I guess this can be the start of my first blog... Before anything is posted I think I will just put out what this will be about, and I hope you will like it. I will blog about real trains very much, whether it be, about a news article, or my own personal railfanning. I plan to tell you about my updates with my own model railroads which I hope to show off in my first few blog posts. To sum it up I plan to post about almost everything when it comes around to trains, and I hope to teach others, and hope that through this I can learn as well. I am very open to learning new things so hopefully, if you have a question, please email it to BellKyle@live.com and I will try my very best to answer it here.
Now a little about myself; I enjoy real scale trains very much. I live a mile or so from the CSX Toledo Line and a few from the Norfolk Southern Great Lakes Division. I live about 15 Miles from the famous Iron Triangle, or Fostoria Ohio. I also live about 10 Miles from the North Baltimore CSX Intermodal hub. This is a huge hub that can be seen Here. This is my personal YouTube Channel where all my videos whether they be Models or mostly Rail fanning videos will go. I also do model trains as well, I have a 4" by 8" HO layout with just track for running, as I run very old HO trains. I also am in the process of building a N Scale Layout. It is about a 4" by 4" It is very far from complete and not exactly the very top of what I want; but It will do as the rails all function with my trains. It is loosely based off the area I live in with a small intermodal hub and many CSX trains. I also have a small table top Z Scale set that I either plan to make into a suitcase layout; or turn into a larger Z scale layout. At the time though I am focused upon my N scale layout and working the kinks out as best as I can.
I also build routes for trains (Who doesn't?). I cannot say I am very good since, none of my routes have ever been published. I have one route I could publish but I think it still needs a bit of work.. I Try my best when it comes to detail in trains, It must look realistic to me or I will not run it. I am a very big fan of Jointed Rail, and of the newer USLW. I like CSX and NS dash 8's and 9's the best of all Locomotives. I am currently in the process of building the NW Ohio area in trainz. I don't think it will be much of a driving route but more of a AI portal route. Well. This is where we part until another time, hopefully I can keep up with this blog and I hope you enjoy it. Please Subscribe to it, and tell me what you would like to see, or like to see changed. Thanks!
