My Cah Shortline S Scale Model Railroad is in it's early stages of being built.I thought I would share the progress in building it in case some of you out there stop by my website who are either interested in model railroading or a beginner in the hobby.I do believe in keeping things simple,after all a model railroad is meant to enjoy and have fun while building it.Happy Model Railroading-Craig

I have a few photos for now (see below)

Why S Scale

 I've been without a model railroad layout(ouch) for about 10 years due to circumstances that happened in my life.For me it's like starting anew in the hobby,with a restricted space in our new home of 7' by 12' plus alittle more space along the wall leading to that room,!0' with only a 15" width.I have experience in modeling with N,HO & O Scales and of course due to space restrictions N or Ho were a logical choice.Well that was all good until I went to a model railroad show that had all the scales represented and at first I naturally migrated over to both the N & HO modular layouts.I noticed another modular layout on the other side of the hall and as I got closer to it watching the trains roll,I got very interested in what I saw.It was S Scale and the first thought that came to mind was this is like big HO,and while checking out the rest of the show I found myself going right back to that S Scale layout talking to the guys that belonged to that S Scale Modular Club.They were very helpful in answering questions about S Scale and I decided that S Scale was for me,thus the idea of a shortline model railroad in S Scale was born.
