Modeling Topics

My plan for this page is to assemble stuff that I have learned or opinions that I have formed on some modeling related topics.

Pretty much everything that I have been doing on the Scranton layout has been something that I have been doing for the very first time. Yes, there was the GS&SV prior, but there really is very little that applied from that layout to this new one other than some lessons in what I did not want (such as code 80 and turnouts that did not reliably work).

So, I come at all things from the perspective of a novice.

I cannot imagine attempting this construction and modeling project in the pre-Internet era.
