| Introduction | I started collecting N Scale trains as a child and received my first set in 1969 when I was eight years old. It was an Aurora “Postage Stamp” train set. I have been collecting ever since and only started to model a layout after I retired last year. I have taken a few rides on the Yosemite-SugarPine RR in Fishcamp near Yosemite NP with my grandkids. I decided to model my N Scale layout using the Pickering Lumber Company in Tuolumne County & the Madera-Sugar Pine Lumber Co. near Yosemite to guide my inspiration for my layout. I plan to focus on the early 1900’s time period. |
| Interests | Model railroading in N Scale. Scratch building scenery and rail-lines from the 1920-1930’s era logging industry, specifically in the Sierra Nevada. |
